Most of what Tom does is turned on a lathe at some point. There are sometimes other tools involved, but the lathe is the key piece. Every piece is handmade, so each piece is individual.
Tom believes that everything he makes should be useful. Each bowl he makes should to be able to hold things. Tom prides himself on crafting durable and functional pieces, that are also aesthetically pleasing to the eye and the hand.
Tom's work can bee seen on her website www.havenhillstudios.com and in person at the Cary Gallery of Artists, in beautiful downtown Cary, NC.
Tom recommends folks check out "The Guy" when it comes to artistic woodturning, that being David Ellsworth, at ellsworthstudios.com . Tom also recommends checking out all of the fabulous work being done by the country's finest woodturners at the American Association of Woodturners website, www.woodturner.org
