About
I possess a diverse background in the art field, having worked in the entertainment industry as a special effects makeup artist, graphic designer, and exhibit builder, among other projects.
However, at this juncture in my life, I have dedicated myself to woodworking as a hobby. I have always found solace in the aroma of freshly cut wood and the aesthetic appeal of its natural grain and finish. Unlike my previous endeavors, woodworking does not entail multiple production stages such as molds, castings, or clay intermediates. My creations are complete, and this aspect holds a particular allure for me at this stage in my life.
Throughout my life, I have demonstrated a remarkable aptitude for manual craftsmanship, capable of repairing items I had no prior experience with (or perhaps should have!) and creating items for my family. I have constructed built-ins, laid out bricks for a fireplace, assembled a bunk bed desk combination from scratch for one of my daughters, and erected various structures on my property, including sheds and decks.
Currently, I am eager to engage in creative pursuits and share my passion with others. I aspire to bring joy to individuals through my creations.
Kindly visit my website, and do not hesitate to inquire about any questions you may have. I am open to commissions for wood carving. Additionally, I will continuously update my website with examples or suggestions of projects I could undertake over the years.
Sincerely,
Paul C. Reilly Jr.
