I love designing and making original pieces, whether bowls or furniture, functional or inspirational, I love the process of bringing a piece to life.
The design process for me ranges from very strong preconceived ideas to extremely free work where the design evolves as the piece is made.
Working with wood has always felt natural for me, the tools I use vary greatly according to what the individual piece demands. Turning, hand carving, power carving, bandsawing, scorching with a blowtorch - whatever it takes to get that finished object to where I think it needs to be.
