Library
This month at Westover Branch Library, Bill Peirce, a woodworker and sculptor for over 30 years, displays his gorgeous wooden creations.
The beautiful, soft-to-the-touch bowls and baby rattles, made from various exotic woods, are only on display through early November.
His bowls are not turned on a lathe, but are made from a single board, with concentric rings cut within the board by bandsaw. The full body of his work can be viewed, and purchased, at Peirce's website.
