Carving on Turning
Modern woodturning masters embellish their work with carving
The popularity of artistic woodturning has skyrocketed in the
past decade. The modern masters featured in this article have
combined turning with carving to create stunning compositions,
of which the beautifully turned shape is only the beginning.
J. Paul Fennell: Infinite piercing
Scottsdale, AZ native J. Paul Fennell started turning in the
1970s. His first project was turning legs for a table, but he
immediately recognized the potential of the lathe as a way to
produce very expressive work. A self-taught woodturner, he
was introduced to the world of artistic turning in the 1980s.
Although Paul had a life-long reverence for wood, those
demonstrations confirmed that woodturning would become
an important part of his life.
