Ed has been fortunate to work with wood throughout his career. As a Log Home builder for over 30 years, he learned the intricacies of combining a primitive look with fine joinery. This has then been extended into my Ed's woodworking to create products made from hardwoods with unique patterns and vibrant colors, using simple designs and soft edges to create wood art which combine function and beauty. The hardwoods are all indigenous to Ed's home. All work is hand crafted in Madison, Indiana. (email this artist directly to learn more about their work)
