Wood
Turning
Guild member since 2008
John likes the fact that the pieces of wood he works with continue to surprise him; one never turns out exactly the way he thinks it will, but they all add texture to his life. He has spent the last seven years concentrating on learning the skills required to practice his craft. He has learned to turn the usual forms and projects, and he has experimented with a variety of surface techniques, texturing, gilding, and patination, stone inlay, and carving. He expects to spend the next seven years stretching those skills and bringing even more innovative ideas to his works.
