I enjoy the search for the natural beauty of wood, with its grain and color. Working with a piece of wood on my Lathe, a turning will emerge. The unknown hiding in that log is so much a part of this wonderful search. The turning might be a vase or a natural edge bowl with each one being unique. Most of my turnings will have bark, cracks, holes, or bark inclusions present and that will help to take my turnings to an art form. As a self-taught turner each piece will add to my training, knowledge and growth.
