Bio:

Here at Walla Walla Wood Works I strive to create beautiful
one-of-a-kind pieces of art by reclaiming wood from local trees
that have already been cut down. I primarily make bowls
(of all sizes and shapes), wine bottle stoppers, boxes and oil lamps.

I’ve been turning wood for over 20 yrs and have taken classes and training from some world-renowned turners. Walla Walla, being the oldest city in the state, has an abundance of mature domestic hardwood trees available, and with patience, time and effort the wood from these different trees can take on many new forms. The process takes over a year for drying and then many hours to turn, finish and polish each piece. Each day I work on my New Zealand-built lathe looking to create the perfect form to highlight what nature created first.

I look forward to seeing you at the Walla Walla Valley Farmers’ Market. I also sell my wares at several sites around town. Feel free to give me a call if you have any questions.
