Shop Artist for July

Bev Redden

Bev is a self-taught woodturning artist from Campbellford. 

After retiring from a long career in the electronics field his love-affair with wood began. He started making segmented items with the woodworking tools he had been collecting for years. In addition to combining woods to design patterns, this art demands precision woodworking and turning skills.

Bev uses Canadian and exotic woods. He lets the raw wood inspire him as to the direction each piece will take. Some works are made up of hundreds of pieces which are soon turned into smooth and cohesive creations, then finished with tung oil.

The Parrott Gallery Shop is pleased to be selling Bev's unique creations including bowls, bangles, pots with lids and vases. Lucky for us, Bev is making room in his workshop and offering his pieces at reduced prices. Also during the month of July, when you buy two pieces you will get $5.00 off the second item. This is the best time to buy these one-of-a-kind functional art pieces.
