Ray Rountree
|

|
Ray Rountree began woodturning
in early 2004,
following Hurricane Isabel.
After 4 months of clearing storm-damaged trees on the family farm, he
decided to salvage some of those trees and to try his hand at woodturning.
With no training in the Arts, Rountree quickly became a student of the
Trial and Error School. (Undoubtedly, his First Career in Sheet Metal
Fabrication developed and honed his abilities for 3-bimensional-Perception,
which have proved to be an enormous asset).
Rountree now enjoys his new “second career” seven days a week, 6 to
10 hours a day! When considering
how to begin each piece, he looks for the wood to dictate how best to
“release” its best attributes.

Using salvaged trees
primarily from the family farms, ay Rountree uses only domestic
woods, adding “finishing touches” to Mother Nature’s “canvases”
already in progress.
