Artist Statement:

"Sometime in 2007, I was sitting in my Dad’s office waiting for him to finish an email. While I waited, I noticed a stack of magazines on the table. It was a pile of woodworking mags. The American Woodturner was on top and a very beautiful and creative turning was on the cover. I have been an amateur woodworker for much of my adult life but had never used a lathe or its tools. I thumbed through the rest of the magazine in amazement at what could be created. After my dad was through, I asked him if he could teach me to turn wood.

My father is a professional woodworker and inventor. However, his patience soon ran out with a rookie of my status. But I was hooked! So I signed up for a week-long woodturning class in Utah. By the end, I had a suitcase full of gouges and skews and came back home full of excitement! I purchased all of the equipment I would need and went to work. Since then, I have attended more classes and tried different mediums.

I enjoy combining epoxy resin with wood and creating one of a kind pieces. Have a piece of wood lying around? Want something special for a loved one at the holiday? I can create a special memory for you!

I enjoy trying new things and strive to make my pieces unique and beautiful. I hope you find them interesting as well!" -Nancy Brennemann
