I have been turning wood on a lathe for over 30 years. Before coming to Israel I was mostly self taught, but after coming here I met Eli Avisera, one of the world's top turners. I have taken two courses with him. One, about 20 years ago, a beginners course, and another, an advanced course, about 6 years ago. I have also taken courses with Jean Francois Escoulin and Yann Marot. Here are some of the turnings that I have done since arriving in Israel.
