Since 1988, Lyle Jamieson has made his home studio in

Traverse City, Michigan, a hub of innovation for

woodturning. His journey began with traditional vessels

and bowls, but a desire to push boundaries led him to

explore the human form through wood. This exploration

required a sophisticated multi-axis approach, blending

complexity with the delicate beauty of the human figure

and allowing the wood’s grain to be showcased in an

elegant manner.

Lyle’s passion for woodturning took root in 1989, driven

by a quest to master the craft under the guidance of

renowned masters. By 1998, he dedicated himself fully

to becoming a studio turning artist and sculptor,

transforming wood into art from his serene Michigan

setting. This environment, rich in natural beauty, serves

as a constant source of inspiration for his work.
