Jerry Tomasek is a self-taught woodworker with a deep respect for nature and the environment. He first envisions the design he wants to make, often sketching it, then walks through the woods looking for the sticks he needs to bring the design into being.
The pieces are crafted with hand-tools. Each one is a unique work of art.
Jerry and his wife, Teri, live off-the-grid in Klickitat County, Washington in the Columbia River Gorge. Their Westwinds Furniture brings the beauty of nature to the indoor living space.
