My woodturning started back in 2002 as a hobby. It has now become an obsession.
I am now a full time Studio Woodturner after voluntarily retired from IBM in 2016.
I produce one of a kind turned, carved, burned and painted wood vessels. I am very interested in doing woodturning demonstrations and teaching classes.
My current obsession is Big, Bold, Surface Decoration. I also love to turn natural edge bowls, vases and jazzing up my turnings with lots of color.
Note: On 9/15/2020, I merged my Website and Blog onto the same Blog platform. This is the “New Look” for my website.

60 Covid-19 Hollow Forms
I turned 60 hollow forms in the first 3 months (mid March to mid June) of the Covid-19 shutdown. So far so good. They have kept the doctor away.
