| I believe in recycling materials to create works of art that will last lifetime. Thus, I create art pieces from peoples trees that have been downed by hurricanes, tornadoes, wind or termite damage. Tom is primarily self-taught in his age-old craft, and has been woodturning for over 20 years. He enjoys working full time creating functional, one-of-a-kind, artistic and collectable pieces, hand turned on a lathe. Tom uses found or recycled wood whenever possible. He specializes in delicate natural edge hollow forms turned from green wood. He is influenced primarily by the shapes found in nature as well as from ancient Indian cultures. Tom enjoys teaching woodturning and doing demonstrations for people in his studio. He has earned many awards for his work and has been featured in such magazines as New Orleans Home & Lifestyles, American Woodturner, and Southern Breeze. |
