Ray Reiland is both a master Wood Turner and a Sculptor. He started out making leather goods, then  gravitated toward wood turning following a inspirational demonstration in the early 80s.  Ray joined Gold Coast Woodturners, where he won several awards over the years.

Ray says his goal is to arrive a something that is unusual, useful and beautiful - we think he achieved that here with this beautiful wooden butterfly bowl.
