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”.

Backup bowl






A backup bowl? Well you have to call it something. This bowl (only one of them for both the gallery and the doublewide markets) came from a tree knocked down by the guy who delivered the ten cords (now cut up and split thank heavens) last winter. TWW cut the downed tree up and made the crude bowl above from that red pine. It has one coat of walnut oil on it. Perhaps poly would be better but then some people would not want to use it for their cereal in the morning.
