CAPITAL ARTISANS GUILD
I am a proud member of the Capital Artisans Guild (formerly the Cumberland Arts and Crafts Guild) and participate actively in the guild as its current president and publicity coordinator. The growing number of shows that the Guild organizes allow me and some of the region's most talented artisans to bring our craft to you.

None of these items would be possible without some reliable sources of beautiful wood. In Ottawa, there are two sources we consistently turn to.
KJP Select Hardwoods is our prime supplier of fine woods from around the world. Walking into this great family business is, for the woodworker, the equivalent of walking into a candy store. If you are looking to have a special piece designed for you, take a moment to check their wood selection. You will be amazed at the array of colours and figures.
Our other source, Clarence Wood Select, is mostly for domestic woods, especially maples of all kinds. Maple is by far my favourite wood with which to work. There are so many variations and types of maple - curly, bird's eye, tiger, fiddle-back, quilted - each and everyone of which has its beauty and its foibles. Once again, feel free to take a trip to their web site to explore their wood selection.
