I
enjoy creating: taking
something in its raw form that
is neither beautiful nor
useful and making it into an object of value.
Applying my skill and my
vision, when
I'm done with my labor,
people like the result. I
am pleased that my effort
creates usable art
available to others. Knowing
that I rescue a piece of wood
that otherwise would simply decompose and disappear, I transform it
into a useful object that can
be handed down from generation to generation if desired, then I am
satisfied.
