Acreative Soul. I’ve always been a creative person, inspired by life and its surroundings, my love for rustic woods of all kinds, rustic wood, exotic wood, wooden bowls, etc.: has always fascinated me. And my extreme passion for exotic wood is so inspirational. I started turning wood in high school in the mid 70’s and dabbled in it to keep up my interest. In September 2015, I decided to get into turning full-time after being forced into retirement because of back problems. Woodturning very quickly became an addiction and I haven’t looked back since. “I truly love the challenges of each piece of wood, I have created many things like custom bowls and platers, charcuterie boards, Tapas Boards and each piece is made from either local wood but mostly exotic sustainable woods. Each piece is completely unique and has its own personality. FB,Instagram, Snap Chat mtardif67hpa8
