I prioritize eco-friendly materials such as salvaged wood, milk-paint, and beeswax finishes to create pieces designed to endure for generations.\n\nMy subjects draw inspiration from familiar objects, native species, and natural landscapes. For me, carving is both a form of meditation and an act of intention. Beyond wood, I craft hand-tied brooms using traditional techniques. Born out of a need to sweep up shop shavings without scattering dust, I use broomcorn and foot-treadle tensioning to create pieces that are as functional as they are beautiful. Whether serving as an altar broom, kitchen cleaner, or everyday tool, each item carries a presence you can feel.\n\nI craft every heirloom to bring a grounded connection to nature into the home. Working with living mediums, these pieces will age gracefully over time, deepening and developing the rich, oxidized colors unique to the materials themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarved in wood, painted with milk-paint, finished with beeswax with a stainlesss steel and wire hanger.
