Lyle Jamieson Woodturning LLC

Teacher, Artist and Sculptor of Wood Art. Developed the Lyle Jamieson Hollowing System Lyle has been involved in both woodworking and turning from an early age.

His father, a pattern maker in Detroit, mentored him in the intricacies of wood, both structural and artistic. As a result of this background, he got his start in the woodworking field. Since 1988, from his home studio in Traverse City, Michigan, Lyle has turned his attention to woodturning and has quickly developed a style that is both innovative in design and technically challenging. While he began his work with traditional vessels and bowls, his creative energies and desire to cultivate his technique soon led him to attempt turning the human form. Requiring a multi-axis approach versus the more traditional single axis, the work is complex, yet delicate. The beauty of the human form allows the artist to employ grain elegantly. Lyle developed a passion for woodturning around 1989. His quest for learning technical skills for woodturning led him to work with the best and most respected masters in the woodturning field. In 1998, Lyle became a full time studio turning artist/sculptor. Lyle resides in a beautiful corner of northern Michigan. He is a morning person and delights in viewing the sunrise from the screened-in porch overlooking the wetlands and pond behind his heavily-wooded, very private property near Traverse City, Michigan. It is an inspirational setting for his lifelong desire to create sensational sculpture. Lyle said: “It’s all about lifestyle, being happy with the work that I choose to do.”

Sad to notify you that we lost Jack Armstrong to cancer. Some of you may know him or recognize his work. He was a significant influence with his turning art pieces in the New Zeeland art and turning world. He was a superstar in lots of ways. A true artist with his forms and embellishments that told moving stories.
In the short time I knew Jack we became more like brothers than just Turning buddies. He made a huge positive effect on the many “families” he had around him. Our turning community is like a family and I am sure the other art and social groups he impacted will morn his loss too.
