When you purchase a wood-turned tree from my shop, you are receiving more than a functional piece of art: you are receiving a story. When I venture into the world to harvest a tree, I bring an instant camera alongside my chainsaw and other equipment. Then, I snap a photo to begin the story. The story continues as the wood is cut up and turned on a lathe in my studio in Mancos, Colorado. Finally, some special person will purchase the vessel and the story will continue.
This Aspen Burl was harvested from high in the La Plata mountains above Mancos, Colorado. The matrices of the burl illustrate a potent story of life in wild places.
This vessel is 5 inches in diameter and 3.25 inches tall.
Thank you for reading, and may your newest own story be filled with beauty and mystery!
