Heirloom Baby Rattles George Bagnall learn more about this artist Turned Wood John Benton learn more about this artist website: http://www.johnswoodturning.com Woodturning is not just an expression of the artist; it is discovering and unlocking the beauty that Mother Nature has provided for all to enjoy. Through exploration of grain, colors, and textures in the wood, creating an art form from this God-given medium, makes us one with nature. Burls, imperfections, grain balancing, and the natural state of the wood itself is our artistic pallet. The woods natural beauty can be enhanced by shape and form and this is the basis for this art form. Embellishments such as piercing, carving, texturing, and colorizing only compliment what we started with. Discovery, not production, excites me and what I see in someones eyes as they view my work is my greatest reward.

Often, I incorporate sculptural or animal forms, but function, esthetics and craftsmanship are always my guidelines. In contrast to the flawless surfaces I sought in my earlier work, I now emphasize the natural aspects of wood. Knots, burls, insect holes, mineral streaks, spalting, and checking are traits that give each piece a highly individual character. I take great care in seasoning and drying the wood I collect to ensure the stability and structural integrity of each completed piece. My finishes are carefully applied and hand-rubbed to a warm, satiny luster." Nathan Rose "Three Toed Table" Cherry, Spalted Maple, Walnut $1125
