Introducing WildWood Kitchen Utensils
Our wildwood kitchen utensils are created from the same fine woods we use for the rest of our wonderful works. They are each freeformed on the bandsaw, refined with rasping and sanding and oiled with mineral oil twice (food safe) and matched up with one of Karinas' colorful cotton dishtowels (made by her from recycled tablecloths). These are wonderful as gifts and also the discerning cooks who understand the value of a good wooden utensil. Bon Appetit!.

Artist
Statement
Karina has
enjoyed utilizing her imagination throughout her life and considers
the development of hers paramount to her happiness. Her desire to
use her senses to manipulate and explore the world around her has
enabled her to come to understand Nature as essential to all of our
well-beingness. The peace and harmony that lie within the forests,
oceans, lakes, skies, mountains, etc…Illustrate the importance
of symbiotic interaction. Nature contains all the secrets of a happy
and fulfilling life if we ask with an open mind the deepest questions
in our hearts and listen with ears aligned to the many voices that
she sings to us in. Karina listens to the voices and conveys the
impressions to works in wood, stone and printmaking. The works impart
the spirit of the Nature she loves as well as the essence of her
day-to-day experience. She has seen that her experiences are similar
to 'everyman's' and hopes that her works will inspire people to unearth
Mother Nature in their own lives and come away with a greater sense
of self awareness and partnership with all.
