CP Wood Studio

• Owner

  • May 2020 - Present

  Growing up as an artist and the son of a carpenter, I spent a good deal of my childhood either on a job site learning how to build or in my home studio expressing myself through drawing and painting. In my early 20's I started working in the trade show industry where I learned to further appreciate the art of a more finished form of carpentry including cabinet and furniture making. It was during my almost 13 years in that industry that I realized that I could take my artistic side and merge that creativity with my technical building knowledge to fabricating furniture and decorative pieces for my own home as well as for family and friends. What started out as a hobby quickly turned into a passion that I could share with the rest of the world. CP Wood Studio is built on the premise of creating custom wood projects at an affordable price while still maintaining the integrity of a hand crafted product that will last for years to come.
