David began working with wood as a young child alongside his father. He spent many years learning the skills of a woodworker. In 2003, he rediscovered the lathe and his skills as a woodturner. Over the last few years, David has continued to hone his skills while learning the art of penturning. The art of penturning has allowed him to explore and experiment with a multitude of materials including domestic and exotic wood, acrylics and resins, solid surface materials, and antler. To create each pen, David hand selects the materials and then works to expose and highlight the beauty of each material. Each pen is carefully crafted to create a beautiful, functional piece of art.
