Collaboration and commissions:

Working with each client’s specific needs, the artist can produce a custom piece from existing drawings or he can draft shop drawings of prototypes and designs of his own to meet the client’s specifications. He can produce varied plant designs such as vines and tendrils, flowers, aspen boughs and branches and many types of fruit, as well as wildlife designs of all kinds, such as deer, horses, bears and birds. Any of these can be used in architectural ornamentation, décor, or applications on cabinets and furniture such as beds, wardrobes, tables, armoires, etc.

Usually the client will provide a general idea of what is desired then a drawing will be drafted for approval. After the approval of the design, the building or carving begins. Upon completion, the piece is then either shipped or delivered for installation. Sometimes a woodcarving must be finished at another location, where the ornament will be installed.

The featured wing is an example of collaboration with a client from New York. The client wanted a sleigh bed with some unique features and we discussed incorporating animal parts into the bed. As the design progressed, the wings were carved at the ends of each bedpost to give an angelic appearance.
