The furniture I create is constructed from the finest hardwoods using traditional joinery. The pieces are what I like to call “Conservative Contemporary,” being designed with function in mind. These designs utilize forms with gentle curves and often showcase the hand-cut joints. My main focus is to craft the finest pieces possible utilizing both hand and machine techniques, whichever will most efficiently achieve the desired results. My pieces are finished with either a Tung Oil type finish or sprayed with a Catalyzed Lacquer, or a combination of both. As a one-man studio, I do all steps in the creation of my furniture – from choosing the rough lumber to the final finish.
