about
DARYL DESPRES

Making my home on Jack’s Mountain, I find inspiration in my surroundings, utilizing locally sourced wood to create pieces that resonate with the natural beauty of the environment. My artistic process honors the essence of each piece of wood, transforming raw materials into functional art that carries both aesthetic value and purpose.

 

Specializing in non-traditional bandsaw boxes, I combine a variety of techniques I’ve developed over the years. Each creation is unique, showcasing intricate designs and an innovative approach that often surprises those who encounter them. My work stands at the intersection of form and function.

 

Describing my creations as "usable art," I believe that art should be accessible and functional, elevating everyday objects into something extraordinary. I invite people to engage with art in their daily lives, blurring the lines between utility and creativity.

As I continue to improve on this art form, I’m committed to reminding us all of the timeless connection between craftsmanship and the natural world.
