Woodwork
I became an artist later in life after surrendering to the old dream of “making things with my hands”. I have been in love with wood all my life and when I moved DownUnder it became a real passion.
A few years ago I decided to give up corporate life and plunge into woodwork. I began by learning to turn wood then I took up carving and sculpting. I use the lathe to create the initial form then I let my imagination fly and I transform a regular shape into something more organic and fluid. Sometimes I add to my pieces a detail in a different material like glass or steel.
I use Australian native wood most of the time however a few of my pieces are made with New Zealand species under the influence of my mentors.
