John is an industrial arts graduate of the Oswego, New York, campus of SUNY, with graduate credits in furniture design & construction from RIT. He operates a workshop in Wolcott where he designs and produces custom cabinetry, fine furniture, and turned bowls and accessories. He has been an exhibitor in crafts shows throughout the Northeast, showing and selling his work at the American Crafts Council fairs in Baltimore, MD, Rhinebeck, NY, and Springfield, MA; the "100 American Craftsmen" in Lockport, NY; the Ohio Designer Craftsmen fairs in Columbus, Ohio; and the Philadelphia Museum of Art Fine Craft Exhibition. He has taught woodworking and industrial arts at the junior/senior high school level in suburban Rochester and has experience in the manufacture of limited edition wood clock cases for the Hamilton Clock Company and Seth Thomas. His interest in woodworking dates back to childhood. He bought his first table saw when he was 13. His love for the medium, appreciation for the inherent qualities of wood, and his understanding of the tools and equipment necessary for the production and finishing of his woodwork is evident in the beauty and functionality of his pieces. His signature on all his products represents his patience, perseverance, and his uncompromising commitment to quality craftsmanship. |
