Exotic Segmented Vessel

Jim Rodgers'

Welcome to Designs in Wood

     I want to communicate the beauty of wood in forms that allow the eye to focus on the wood. My interest is polychromatic segmented vessels and green wood hollow forms.

     I use many woods native to the Western United States and accented with tropical exotics. I study the creations of many other artists working in wood, ceramic, and other media and adapt the most interesting ideas into my work. See my work displayed at many galleries throughout the Bay Area and, by the way, check out my techniques pages. Also of interest is our new products under Tool Sales.

     Ideas grow from my students and workshop participants who inspire me to new forms and designs.
