Ken has been an active woodturner since
1983. In the early years, this hobby provided a relaxing diversion from
his fulltime job as an aerospace engineering officer with the Canadian air
force. The hobby soon became a passion. Ken has been selling his
creative works since 1996 at craft shows and local galleries. He
routinely participates in the shows of both the Cumberland Arts and Crafts
Guild and the Gloucester Craftsmen's Guild spring and Christmas shows, the
Cloyne Showcase in Aug and the Ottawa
Wood Show. Ken has been very active in the wood turning
community. He was president of the Valley Wood turners (Ottawa) from
Jan 2001 to Dec 2005 and has been a wood turning teacher for over ten years,
having introduced over 250 students to the wonderful world of
woodturning. Ken retired from working with the military in
2005 and now lives permanently in his Sharbot Lake home. Ken works from
a 1500 sq ft shop facility that includes a separate gallery/display
area. |
