Collison Woodturning Designs

Bill creates natural edged and thin-walled woodturnings. Tina creates the surface embellishments and piercing designs, elevating craft into art.

Bill and Tina Collison create unique and appealing designs, using local and exotic wood species. Bill’s interest and knowledge of woodworking stems from his childhood. Actually he was pressed into service holding the long ends of countless boards by his hobbyist father while other kids were headed for the ballfield. Little did he know that he would someday become engrossed in artistic design, with wood as his chosen medium. He works with burls and creates natural edged bowls, and thin-walled turnings for his wife’s work. Tina’s interest began with bird carving classes. The convergence of carving and woodturning was natural and inevitable. She creates the surface embellishments and piercing designs on Bill’s thinly turned bowls and platters, elevating craft into art.
