I started making leather goods about 28 years ago. My first project was to finish by finishing a hand tooled purse my Father had started for my Mother. He used it as an opportunity to teach me the art of leather carving. I started with the Western Floral genre and moved on to carving animals and pictorial carving.

My specialty is hand carved leather goods. I make purses, wallets, checkbook covers, money clips, coin purses and many other things. I also accept custom orders. So if you don't see just what you are looking for, contact me and I'll discuss your idea for a project with you.

Just like human skin, leather sometimes has blemishes. I try to incorporate these blemishes into my leather work to give it character.
