SnoogthePoog

First trained as photographer at Rochester Institute of Technology and London College of Printing (England).
Photographer and college level photo teacher for 20 years and university level for 5. Quit that scene for health reasons and re-trained as cabinet maker at Montreals École du Meuble.
I design, draw plans and build custom cabinets, usually of solid wood but also using veneered panels. I enjoy producing fine finishes that bring out the qualities of the wood such as french polish and rubbed varnishes. I also enjoy using wood with character which might be considered imperfect by some. My influences are both French and Japanese but I often just let the situation dictate the looks of the piece.
