My work is comprised of Eastern Canadian Hardwoods, with several varieties of maple and ash being my favourites. I am primarily a functional turner, although some of my pieces have been viewed as art and may be found in collections. One such piece was given to the Emperor of Japan. When I first look at a piece of wood, I seek to keep it reflective of the tree from which it came rather than processing it to the point where it no longer looks like a natural organic form.
All pieces are original and handmade while varying in size, shape and colouring.
You may have seen my work at the One of a Kind Canadian Craft Show and Sale in Toronto, Canada. You can also read more about me on a biography page. If you would like to see more detail in these photographs, each thumbnail is linked to a larger image. My bowls are meant to be used during meals for salads, hot pasta, bread, fruit or rice, as well as a decorative piece on a table, shelf or wall. Please feel free to be creative with your usage.
