Turbulent Waters #12 Wood Sculpture
The Turbulent Waters #12 wood sculpture represents the motion of water flowing in a river. The amount of energy in the motion can vary greatly and this energy affects the shape of the motion. Turbulent Waters #12 has high energy and represents river rapids. The Turbulent Waters #12 sculpture is a three dimensional sculpture and can be viewed from either side. This two sided maple wood sculpture represents the disorder and commotion of turbulent waters. The wood is approximately 1/8" thick and the overall thickness of the structure is approximately 1" The wood sculpture is free standing and can easily be displayed on a shelf, desk or table. The approximate size is 7" x 7" x 1". The wood structure is finished with a hand rubbed coat of wax to preserve the natural beauty of the wood.

I have always been interested in the nature of wood; its feel and aroma. I find that nothing is more pleasant than the smell of freshly cut wood. I started my career as an engineer. At that time I bought my first table saw and I have been involved in woodworking ever since. The mathematical and engineering knowledge I gained early in my career I apply to my woodworking designs. I started my career in woodworking designing and building of traditional furniture. After making custom furniture for many years my interests have expanded to include designing and creating unique handcrafted wooden boxes, sculptures and wall art. I create each piece myself without any assistants. I feel the most important aspects of my work are the actual design process and the natural beauty of the wood used to construct the piece. The tools I use range from traditional hand tools to advanced power tools.
In my current work, I often combine the natural flowing curves that are found in nature with geometric patterns. The contrast created between the natural flowing curves and the geometric patterns creates an object that quickly capture’s your eye’s attention. In a recent wooden box I designed, I combined the classic checker board pattern with smooth flowing curves. As you look at the box, your eyes are first attracted to the strong contrast between the maple and black walnut squares, but this contrast is quickly balanced by the flowing curves of the piece. The boxes I design are suitable for use as engagement ring boxes, keepsake boxes, or simply a wooden box to be displayed because of its inherent beauty and uniqueness.
My wave sculptures are another example of an object I have designed and created that captures the wave motion so often found in nature. The wood used in creating each sculpture is hand chosen for its color and grain. Each wave sculpture is unique and is dated and signed.
The wall art pieces I design also capture various aspects of nature, such as, sea life and also mathematical geometric patterns.
Most of my pieces are available for immediate delivery. I am also open to discuss new projects that meet your personal requirements. Pieces can also be redesigned using different woods of your choice or in a size that will meet your needs
