Celebrations of Creativity and Craftsmanship

Presented by Museum of Miniature Houses and Other Collections at Museum of Miniature Houses and Other Collections

A personal perspective on woodturning: I have always been fascinated by the diversity of Nature.  For all its variety, Nature is a cooperative effort. I’m drawn to cultures and beliefs that reflect Man and Nature in cooperation rather than conflict – Native American, Zen Buddhist, Hawaiian/Polynesian, Australian Aborginal, African and others of similar beliefs.

Working with wood you either force yourself and your ego into/onto the object, or you become aware of your own strengths and limits as well as those same qualities in your material. The results reflect the chosen path. Sometimes, I’ll have a particular piece of wood in the studio for years before we come to terms with each other. At other times,  the process is much more immediate. Either way, one must always be aware of hidden nuances along the way.
