Woodworks by Vincent

Welcome to my portfolio

Each one of my pieces is handcrafted individually in my small basement workshop. I am  primarily self taught. With each piece, my goal is to create something very special that someone will cherish for years. Particular attention is paid to grain patterns, joint techniques, the mixture of exotic and domestic woods, as well as hard and soft woods. Careful attention is directed toward the workmanship in the construction and the finishing. I do not use wood stains. The natural wood tones and colors are kept natural. Tung Oil and Polyurethane with several coats of a wax finish, are used to enhance clarity of the grain and protect each piece. Meticulous sanding ensures each work is smooth and soft to the touch.The satisfaction of taking a thought or dream and bringing it into reality has intrigued me since my beginnings in woodworking. Woodworking is a passion that I have found to be very satisfying and rewarding. There has been and will continue to be a constant evolution of my creations and work quality. Because of the very nature of working with wood as medium, there are Indiosyncrities that make each piece of wood unique and distinctive. No single piece of wood looks like any other, therefore no two of my pieces will look exactly like another.
