Barbara J. Raskopf Shapiro - the Woodsmith

​

I have always felt drawn to the rich textures and deep earth tones of wood; I find it delightfully sensuous handling the natural medium and basking in the aromas while I burn the designs.  Each design is meant to harmonize with the patterns inherent in the specific item of wood, without overwhelming its own intrinsic beauty.  I hope you enjoy the results.
