Collection: Brian Markham

I am a woodturner in the rugged Muskoka landscape near Algonquin Park. Inspired by the the natural beauty, my art reveals the complexity and warmth of wood. On my lathe, I transform bark-covered burls and slabs of wood into distinctive, live-edge bowls, platters and tables.

The tactile nature of burl art creates a sense of pleasure and an appreciation of texture in a handcrafted piece. You enjoy the brilliance of the wood, the depths of colour and grain, and the bowl or platter presents your food beautifully.

Burl art connects you to the forest and the art in your home tells a story about how you value and love nature.
