Some of my Latest Pieces - 2018 to 2020
My pieces are available for sale, contact me or view them at galleries where I am featured. I also do custom commission work if you have a special request or some unique wood that you would like turned into a finished piece.
One-on-one woodturning classes and workshops for up to 2 students are also available. Refer to my Classes page for more information.
Welcome to Frank DiDomizio Creative Woodturning
I enjoy creating unique and artistic woodturning from my bright studio along the shores of Chemong lake, where the changing seasons provide inspiration to develop new designs. My studio and lathe serve as a creative place where wood is chosen as the primary media for exploration. Each new piece is a journey of evolution as it becomes a finished form. My preference is a mix of contemporary and traditional shapes, often highlighted with colour or texture to produce eye-catching pieces, each with their own personality. I also incorporate wire sculptural elements with some pieces.
