http://shermanwoodturning.com/Steves_First_Site/Gallery_I.html The study of “Classic” artwork and design has been my life-long passion. 
Many of the benchmarks have been set and the designs have been time-tested and proven through the ages. The interpretation of these art works and the inspiration one gets from these studies give the artist an in-depth understanding of space, line and form. Once the forms becomes second nature, the techniques are learned, ... thus allowing the artist the ability to push the envelope and express his or her 
own personality in these works of art. http://shermanwoodturning.com/Steves_First_Site/Gallery_I.html#0 16bffb03-0b64-4eef-8b5f-f62dfdd63f60 http://shermanwoodturning.com/Steves_First_Site/Gallery_I_files/Media/SPIRITUS%20for%20the%20site%2011%3A09/thumb.jpg http://shermanwoodturning.com/Steves_First_Site/Gallery_I_files/Media/SPIRITUS%20for%20the%20site%2011%3A09/micro.jpg <div style="padding: 0px;
