Woodturning is about curves and curves fascinate me. A beautiful curve can give a sense of movement to a static object, creating a sudden feeling of tension in the observer and releasing it just as quickly. I strive to incorporate these qualities into my work by creating seemingly simple forms with both bold and subtle curves, often defined by crisp edges or transitions.

I am still in search of the perfect curve.

Born in New Jersey, David graduated from Rutgers University with a Bachelors degree in Landscape Architecture, an education which gives him the ability to apply design principles to a great variety of projects in a range of disciplines.

David moved to Middletown Springs, Vermont in 2004 where he has been happily working wood ever since, when he isn’t distracted by potlucks, volunteering for local civic duties, keeping up with mowing and firewood, riding his motorcycle, teaching wood turning at Green Mountain College in Poultney, VT for nine years and enjoying life with his wife Jenny and their cats.

David’s work has appeared in numerous juried galleries and shows throughout Vermont and is in private hands around the world.
