Lisa Laughy,

Concord, N.H.

When it comes to process, Lisa is a traditionalist

with an eclectic flair. She uses a band saw or

router to cut the initial shapes for her designs

and does the rest of the work with hand tools,

leaving most pieces unsanded to achieve an

organic, rippled surface texture. “I prefer this

quiet, unplugged method of woodworking,

creating a finished piece that reflects the time

and contemplation invested in creating it,” Lisa

said. She carved her 12" (31.1cm) square

Elemental Cross

out of mahogany. Find Lisa at

Katrin Dobbin,

Ajax, Ontario

“I create lots of wood burned art…but sound waves are my favorite

because of the memories I get to be a part of,” Katrin said. She bases

her projects on music, voice and video clips, and baby heartbeats. She

burned this 12" by 24" (30.5cm by 61cm) piece on birch using sound clips

of a couple’s wedding vows. All pieces are finished with a UV-blocking

polyurethane spray. Find Katrin on Facebook at FIREArt by Katrin.

Rohit Jangid,

Rajasthan, India

Rohit and his brother, Mohit, learned ornamental carving from their

father, Mahesh. Rohit hand-carved every element in

Miniature

Flower Pot

—down to the tiny houseflies—from sandalwood, which

he prefers because of its “malleable characteristics and delicate

natural fragrance.” It stands at 10" by 24" (25.4cm by 61cm). For
