Terry Holzgreen
Terry Holzgreen is a cabinetmaker and self-taught artist who creates functional and sculptural works made of wood.
Holzgreen started working as a carpenter in his mid-twenties by buying a hammer, an electric circular saw and a power drill and putting an ad in the local newspaper for general carpentry with no prior experience. While plying his craft he became a craftsman - facing problems, making mistakes and finding solutions.
Now his skills, passion and voice have converged and ignited. His former cabinetry activities and shop have transformed into an artist’s studio. He’s utilizing the same space, tools and many of the same materials but nothing he’s made resembles the work he’s producing today.
