Exotic and American Hardwood Pens
Each pen is made from either imported wood or American wood of exceptional quality. Each piece is milled against the grain. Although it is harder to mill wood against the grain, the end product is far more beautiful than milling with the grain. This requires the ability to see what the wood might look like when finished. Seeing is all part of being an artist which how I think of myself first. You can see this vision in a few pieces below. I.E. Lignum Vitae, Spalted Maple, Crepe Myrtle Knot.
