Brian Tyson

Artist’s Bio

Brian,a resident of Chilliwack, B.C. has been a woodturner for the past decade. Each piece that he turns is inspired by his belief that "A turned piece of wood must be able to stand on the merits of design evident to the observer, apart from the utilitarian consideration or inherent beauty of the wood".

The drive to refine his technique and design has led him to travel extensively, attending symposia across North America. His works are in galleries from Victoria to Toronto and the USA. Brian works mostly from salvaged wood and finds much joy in being able to turn an unwanted piece of wood into a Fine Artform.
