Take home a piece of Yorkshire

 Hand crafted from locally reclaimed wood

 My source of wood (logs) is from locally reclaimed trees – diseased, wind blown or through intervention by tree surgeons.

 I create contemporary wood art by ‘Reshaping Nature’, revealing fascinating combinations of patterns, lines and wood grain.

 The work evolves through careful shaping, a controlled drying process, seasoning and finally finishing with natural oil - a slow process, but well worth the effort in order to conserve the beauty that is wood.

 The original piece of wood is turned 'Inside Out', in order to display to you the 'Wood Art' that has been hidden away for many years.

 Not every piece ends up being totally symmetrical – natural drying allows nature to influence the final shape with some fascinating and quirky results.

 The resultant hollow form creation is not a single piece of Art - a very different perspective can be enjoyed through '360 degrees' of 'Wood Art'.

 I hope you will share with me in my enthusiasm!

 Each item is unique - The choice is yours.
