Woodturning Artist John Benton – Creating Unique Artwork in Lake Wylie, SC

September 7, 2012
Most people are familiar different art mediums like oil paint, sculpture, or photography, but one medium that isn’t quite as common is woodturning.  Woodturning is the art of forming objects from wood using hand held chisels and a lathe.  As the lathe turns, the wood remains stationary and is slowly shaped by the lathe. Using this basic process, wood artists create a variety of artwork, including some very intricate pieces.  Many wood artists like to create artwork out of burls, a tree growth in which the grain has grown in a deformed manner, to create one-of-a-kind pieces of artwork.
