About the Artist

My process, which I call Wood Cloisonné, begins with collecting wood from my Appalachian home place and creating a woodturning. I then make multitudes of small pieces from a variety of wood species, wrap each piece in thin metal, and inlay them into the original woodturning. Through this process I am able to achieve a look that presents familiar materials in an innovative way, as well as infuse my own artistic sensibilities. Every piece I complete is its own story. That story includes my medium of choice, my many decisions as an artist, and even representations of the life I have lived.

Based in Woolwine, VA
