I approach woodturning artistically with functionality in mind. My hope is that you use my woodturned piece(s) specifically to its purpose but also enjoy it as a thing of natural beauty in your home.
I start with a log that I cut myself utilizing mostly locally sourced trees from the around the Ozarks. I create a range of products in either dedicated sets or as stand-alone singular items for homes, businesses, and shops.
My one-of-a-kind crafted items are also influenced by my personal interpretation of nature as it is my passion, specifically the beauty and life that trees provide. I endeavor to uncover the unique figure and distinct characteristics of each piece of wood that I turn and bring to life again that which I am gifted from nature. I feel blessed for every piece of wood I use in my craft.
My father is 97 and was primarily a self taught woodturner. I learned to appreciate the craft through him. Additionally, I am grateful for those who have shared their knowledge and skill with me, helping me to become the best craftswoman I can be. I believe that if anyone is self-made, it is largely due to the aid of those who came before, imprinted skill and left inspiration.
