    Inspiration and Techniques

    Jason’s work is inspired by the natural world and the vastness of space, which he captures through his unique use of wood and resin. His technique of pouring resin like painting allows him to create designs that represent planets, oceans, and galaxies. This method gives him creative freedom and the ability to work with smaller pieces of wood. For Jason, woodturning is not only a craft but a therapeutic practice, blending artistry with a personal journey of resilience.
