Read our interview with the artist
I enjoy exploring the natural beauty found in wood, creating a form that brings out the wood’s natural color and unique grain. It is intriguing to to turn different species of wood, exploring the different grain patterns, colors, textures and sometimes aromas. I also enjoy the challenge of figuring out how to securely hold the piece of wood so it can be turned into the desired form. These include bowls, vases, ink pens, pepper mills and more. I utilize mostly wood salvaged from urban settings, house sites and logging sites, giving it new life as a wood turning. Open all year by appointment. To set up appointment email thompsonworks@embarqmail.com, call 919-542-1790 and leave a message or text me at 919-444-1359.
