Wood
Growing up on a small farm near Palo Alto, I began my artistic career making wooden toys for my younger brothers. Other than lapidary instruction at a summer camp and high school art with Robert Arneson, I’m mostly self-taught in both jewelry and weaving. I like making beautiful things of wood because of its plasticity in color and pattern. Most of the wood I use is excess wood from furniture and cabinet makers, and flooring and interior finish contractors.
