By April 29, 2016 August 9th, 2021 Artist of the Month, Foundry Artists

I was a carpenter for 45 years, working on everything from high-risers to barns. A few years before retiring I began to scale it down to portable objects. This kind of woodwork required new tools and new skills. Carpentry was my trade but woodworking is my craft. I have been with the Foundry for three years and a wood working artist for 15 years. I have five wooded acres which supplies most of the wood I use and a sawmill to turn trees into lumber. This sure beats working!
