Ted Sokolowski
Wood Turning/Metal Spinning

Born and educated in New York, Ted graduated from the School of Visual Arts in Manhattan with a BFA in Illustration. He practiced illustration for 16 years while actively woodworking as a hobby. He has studied the human figure extensively through drawing and appreciates the subtle nuances of contour found in all of nature. He now looks to create classical forms within the medium of wood with respect to woodturning. He now persues woodturning fulltime through high-end craft shows and art fairs.

"I find my forms inter-relate to the human figure more everyday. This has not been a conscious effort. Figure drawing has been such an important part of my artistic life that the sensuous subtle human contours I have studied for years now unconsciously appear in my work at the lathe."
