Most of my speculative work, including Sculpted Ash Table and Maple Trestle Table is built spontaneously and every design decision I make is dependent on how the piece looks at that very moment. Sometimes, that means I don’t even know what I’m building. I believe that the best, most soulful work cannot be planned. It can only be realized.
This quote comes from a friend, a very talented wood sculptor.
As I work, each new curve or valley carved from the wood reveals what the next step will be. Each wandering crack is a new challenging clue.
– Conrad Sarzynick
