Dick
Park started serious woodworking in his high school Industrial Arts
class at 16 years old. Woodworking has been his primary hobby since
then. During this time he spent his career as a successful machine
design engineer, which required a great amount of attention to detail.
This attention to detail has carried over into his woodworking.
He has created original heirloom pieces of wood art that are of
the highest quality, using many woods from around the world. Each
piece Dick creates is not only beautiful but functional and meets
the needs and desires of the recipients.
Among his commissioned works are the jewelry cabinets and boxes
seen in his portfolio.
The design and materials, including space needs were developed
through consultation with each client. A variety of hardwoods,
including exotics, were used and inlaid designs varied on each
cabinet or box.
All of the cabinets and boxes were personalized through the use
of initials, symbols or preferred materials.
Dick’s pieces are a testimony to his extreme love of wood
and his dedication to meeting the needs of others in a pleasing,
artistic and functional way.
