I have started making these minimal wood multi purpose hooks from the leftover wood used in my commissions. I love repurposing the extra wood instead of throwing it away/burning it.

“ He has found himself preoccupied with circles and the flow of movement and energy they create. His approach to both musical composition and craftsmanship is fairly consistent – start with one idea and go from there. Each layer he adds, whether it’s in a new song or a new carving, builds upon the previous ones without much concern for what lies ahead. For him, it’s all about the feeling and movement in that moment.”
