On the Road

The items listed here will be exhibited for sale during the month of September, 2010, at the Multnomah Arts Center in Portland, OR. The members of the Pacific Northwest Woodturning Guild (PNWG) will be the featured artists at the MAC gallery for the entire month.

You can download the current MAC schedule and check out the listing for the Guild on page 3. (Note: the winged bowl and box in the leftmost picture are mine!) If you are in the Portland area anytime during the month, why not stop by and see the wide selection of beautiful woodturnings that I and my fellow Guild members have created?

All pieces on this site are subject to prior sale. But if you see something in this section that you would like, please email me (see the Contact Us page) to see if it is still available. If it is, I can arrange to have it shipped to you from Portland. Keep in mind that this is a long exhibit, and there may be a lag between when an item is sold and when I receive notice of the sale so that I may update the website.
