Oldman Woodcrafts

Describe your art
I create heirloom quality handcrafted gift items made from desirable domestic and exotic hardwoods and custom resin pours. Consisting of the following examples:
Bowls, Pens, Bottle Stoppers, Goblets, Rings, Serving Trays, Charcuterie and Cutting Boards, Hummingbird Houses, Salad Bowls with Serving Utensils, Pizza Cutters, Pie and Pizza Serving Tools, Grilling Tools, Handcrafted Cooking Utensils, etc..
All I feel that I am only limited by my imagination

Who or what inspires you?
The beauty possessed by the wood is my greatest inspiration. To paraphrase the infamous words of Forest Gump, woodturning is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you are getting until you open it up. Every piece of wood is unique and its beauty is unknown until you open it up and see what’s inside.

What is your favorite medium to work with?
Wood (domestic and exotic)

What's a fun fact about you?
I am always looking for a challenge that will push my limits and make me strive for excellence, in whatever I do.

I am a self taught woodturner. I have been called a perfectionist on several occasions, as each unique item that I make has to meet my quality and workmanship standards, otherwise the piece will never leave my shop.
