Bruce Fransen
Bruce has worked with wood since the early '70's as an arborist and as an artist. Over the past 15 years, creating his stunning wood sculptures has become an all consuming passion.
​
His art is informed by his love of the waterways of his youth, his extensive knowledge and experience in preserving trees over a 40+ year career, and his fine arts education at Virginia Commonwealth University.
​
Bruce loves the innate beauty, versatility, and potential great surprises inherent when working with wood.
