A remarkable tree received a second life as a wood bowl. This display bowl is in a private collection.

This bowl comes from a huge wind-toppled hemlock that grew for centuries on an island near Sitka, Alaska.

This bowl was made from a salvaged alder that blew over in a rugged Alaskan winter storm.

This is what happens with when you understand the movement of wood. I shaped this bowl while still dripping wet after this elderberry was pulled from the ground to make way for a parking lot.

What do you give a talented professional painter and mural artist?

This bowl came from a hemlock stump that had weathered many seasons as a piece of driftwood.
