Nature’s Beauty, Turned by Hand

Where Every Grain Tells a Story

At Hamilton Wood Artistry, I transform the quiet soul of wood into elegant, one-of-a-kind pieces for the home. Each creation is handcrafted on a lathe and brought to life through techniques such as carving, pyrography, painting, and airbrushing. Whether it’s a decorative vessel, a finely tuned writing instrument, or a food-safe bowl, every object is a labor of passion and precision.

My work is deeply inspired by natural beauty—from the vivid colors of autumn leaves in New England to the delicate form of butterflies I’ve observed during travels in the Far East. With an emphasis on hardwoods and all-natural finishes, my pieces highlight the character of the wood itself—its grain, its bark, its story. I invite you to experience functional art that is as unique as the trees it came from.

Artistic
Integrity

Each piece I create is truly one of a kind. I never mass-produce, and I never repeat the same design twice. From the unpredictable beauty of a burl to the fine lines of hand-drawn pyrography, every item bears the unique touch of my hand.

Nature-Inspired
Design

My designs are deeply influenced by nature and culture—drawing from the elegance of Asian art, the colors of autumn foliage, and the intricate beauty of butterflies and birds. I aim to bring the quiet poetry of the natural world into your home.

Sustainable Craftsmanship

I use only non-endangered hardwoods and all-natural finishes. My commitment to responsible materials ensures that the artistry I create leaves no negative impact—only lasting beauty.

Crafted with Purpose,
Inspired by Wonder

Hamilton Wood Artistry LLC is the culmination of a lifelong passion for woodworking. I began my journey decades ago building furniture for my own home, crafting out of necessity and joy. When life demanded a pause, my tools were set aside—but never my desire. Years later, with the blessing of a well-earned bonus, my wife and I ventured out and I brought home a lathe. That was the beginning of something new. I was hooked.

What started with simple pens soon grew into a full expression of art: bowls, boxes, carved vessels, and pierced wooden jewelry. I brought together skills old and new—scroll work, pyrography, airbrushing, and more. I joined the American Association of Woodturners and the Northwest Washington Woodturners, continuously pushing myself to grow and explore. This is more than a business—it’s my passion, and I love sharing it through every piece I create.
