“I've been a woodworker since I was young, enjoying the creative process and discovering how satisfying it is to work with wood,” says Steven Robins. “I found woodworking a wonderful balance to my academic study of literature and writing. I became passionate about learning the craft, understanding better the properties of each species of wood, and ultimately about bringing an artist's vision to each piece.”
Since the onset of the pandemic, Steven has found himself drawn to different specific pieces of wood than he usually is, especially for the art pieces. “I've been selecting wood that's damaged, wood I would normally have said is unworkable, and I've been ready to experiment with it, take more risks. I think I'm attracted to those flaws now, wanting to draw them out and demonstrate their place in my work.”
A day spent woodturning, reading, gardening, listening to music, and spending time with my wife and Duncan, our dog.
Books! I've always learned most by reading.
What I value most about myself, about what I've achieved, is actually what I've done as an educator to understand and help students grow, gain confidence in themselves, and find their place in the world. I've been so fortunate to have taught and served as an administrator for so many years.
All of Steven's pieces are available for curbside pick-up in West Nashville by appointment or can be shipped for a fee. Please see individual pieces for shipping fees.
