The Painted Turtle

Welcome to The Painted Turtle My name is James. I am a bit of a hobby collector; starting with wood working about 20 years ago, and expanding in to leather work, applications with resin, and work with a laser engraver. I particularly enjoy finding ways to combine all of these techniques together. I tend to create with what I find. Fallen trees, scraps of leather, upcycling from thrift stores, etc. Though I do have some items I can recreate repeatedly, most of my productions are limited in quantity.
