The Warped Woodturner (TWW) is a local artist traveling his artist's journey in a suburb of Springbrook, WI (pop. 536). TWW's creative calling is to use a wood lathe to make useless objects from locally-sequestered organic carbon for tourists to bring back to the city to give to people they had to buy something for but do not like that much. His target market is the senior citizens since their vision is not as good as it used to be so cannot see the defects as well. His marketing jingle is: “Bowls as simple as their creator”.

Serving bowl/tray

Serving bowl/tray of some sort made from an old tree that blew down in the August 2005 storm. It was colored using vinegar with rusty nails in it and then the bowl was coated with mineral oil. The coloring and coating add flavor to what you serve in the tray/bowl and aid in digestion. The bowl/tray measures 12" by 1 1/2". The spot in the center of the bowl is one of TWW's signature defects used to insure an imperfect product.
