Center for Furniture Craftsmanship, Rockport ME

We can always learn and improve our skills. This summer I will be taking a carving seminar with master sculptor Chris Pye. My goal is to learn new techniques, and also to study his teaching techniques. I'm planning to develop a curriculum to teach others about sculpture.

The Workshop

You can see a feature chapter about me in my shop in the Taunton Press hardcover book "The Workshop," by Scott Gibson.

What's in the docket?

I seem to have had a run on ecclesiastical pieces. My next project is for a Torah Stand for Temple Bnai Israel in Laconia, NH, and then a Torah cabinet for Temple Israel in Portsmouth, NH. I am working on a design for another Torah stand for a synagogue in California, and I have an order to fill for a crosier for a Bishop on Long Island.

How to commission

If you have an idea for something you'd like please jump over to my Guest Registry. You may like something sculptural and artistic, or a piece of 'regular' furniture that you'd like to be made personal for yourselves, or some garden art.  We can talk; I'll find out about your needs and budget; I'll send a few sketches and develop one you like into a detailed design for your approval. Then I'll put you on my schedule and when it's done I'll ship it. You'll become my latest collector.
