STATEMENT
In Maine, where wood is a renewable resource, the smell of freshly sawn pine logs at my father's mill was part of my childhood. Materials have always been a source for ideas. I work with respect for the nature of materials and craftsmanship, and it is my intention to use them with careful attention to inherent properties.
