Beyond Wood - William Hunter Wood Sculptor (DVD) - all regions
This is the story of William Hunter, one of the leading woodturner-sculptors of these times, and one of the original leaders of the modern woodturning movement. The story of his development as an artist is very interesting, and should inspire many that the key to becoming an artist, besides talent, is determination and perseverance. But the work itself is what most grabs and holds the attention. It is breathtaking! His expressions of spiraling energy carved into the bowl form are technically difficult and aesthetically spectacular. It is no wonder that, after years of struggle, Hunter has at last become widely recognized and highly successful doing exactly what he always wanted to do, without compromise. To anyone who is interested in the high ART of woodturning, this artist and this book are highly recommended. --yankee2 "woodworker"
