Uwe Dost - Wood Lathe Artist, was a first place winner in the HIFA WoodShow in 2000. "The exquisite grain of native Hawaiian woods has become the focus of Uwe's work. Initially working with koa, milo and mango, he soon discovered the awesome beauty revealed in Hawaii's Norfolk Island Pine and Cook Pine. As these woods age, a process known as 'spalting' develops intricate pattern of changing colors, almost rich enough to taste. From these special woods, Uwe's skilled hands created calabashes, urns, vases and plates, that display and further magnify their beauty. UA MAU KE EA O KA 'AINA I KA PONO (The life of the land is perpetuated in righteousness)."
