What kind of work do you do?
My wife and I have a backyard birding business. I think I'll work in a bird form into my signature, or name a line of pottery after different songbirds. So I don't really know what kind of work I do to be honest, I'm still working on that. haha.
Interests:
Newest interest is pottery,
Bird watching,
wood working
scrolling,
wood turning.
