Artist Statement:
Carol Amy Roth is a
self-taught woodturner who
works at her 200 year old home
in rural Vermont. Each of her
bowls, vessels and natural
edge vases is unique. In her
old barn, each piece is turned
from wood that others would
most likely have rejected as
either too gnarly or rotted to
use.
After moving into her old
farmhouse, she began
collecting and using rustic
antique tools while learning
woodworking and cabinetmaking
from early twentieth century
books. In 1998 Carol found
the antique treadle lathe that
would introduce her to a love
of woodturning. By early the
next year, what began as a
spark of interest became an
absolute obsession. After
reading, researching and
experimenting over and over
again, she began to turn and
sell her bowls, vases and
vessels.
Her work has been shown at
The Southern Vermont Art
Center; Stratton Arts and Fine
Craft Festivals; KAOS Fine
Art Gallery in Wilmington,
Vermont; Frog Hollow in
Middlebury, Vermont; the 2004
and 2005 “Envisioned in a
Pastoral Setting” shows held
at Shelburne Farms; and at the
Gallery on the Green, also in
Shelburne, Vermont.
