Creative, Inspired wood art from Mark Alan Artisan Woods. Now specializing in "Custom Artisan Engagement Ring Boxes"
"Master Wood Artisan" Mark A. Porter resides in White Bluff, TN. His art has found homes in more than 25 US States and 8 Countries throughout the world. "Most of my work is a one of a kind original never to be duplicated. I use different woods ranging from reclaimed
barnwood to exotic burls. I design and create products that look and feel custom made. Some of my work is designed to be functional. Others are purely artistic. Browse my portfolio to get a feel of the time and passion I put into my art. Olympian Eric Liddell I think best worded it in 1924. He said: "I know God made me for a purpose, but he also made me fast. When I run I feel His pleasure."
When I become immersed in my art, I to can feel His pleasure. I hope my work brings a smile to your face!
Due to work loads I am only accepting "Custom Engagement Ring Boxes" by commission at this time. Please let me know if you would like for me to create a one of a kind ring box for you.
Thank You!
Mark

    Tray looked awesome. With the cast iron handles it really took it back to 150 years ago.
    Thanks,

    Mark is fantastic and his work is absolutely beautiful! His communicates frequently and timely, and provided consistent updates to our project with photos. The quality of his work is amazing and truly unique. He is very attentive to any requests I made regarding the style of the project, but I would have complete faith to let him run wild with your idea, as he is truly a great craftsman. I cannot recommend Mark highly enough!

    Mark made for me a custom engagement ring box made of Cocobolo and African Blackwood. I contacted him with a short deadline of only about a month to get this done and he not only managed to finish the project and get it to me in time, but did it VERY well. The ring box is beautiful and shows the craftsmanship of an expert. I would highly reccomend Mark to anyone without hesitation.
