July 15, 2021 - September 6, 2021In conjunction to The Great Outdoors exhibit, Art Center Morro Bay is please to present the beautiful wood turned art of Larry K. Truesdale.
There has always been a passion inside of Larry as it pertains enjoying the beauty of the internal grains of various species of woods, and a vision of what a piece of wood could ultimately become to expose its inner beauty. His experience in the scientific community, focusing on drug discovery, gave him the ability to look beyond the ordinary and create something extraordinary. After retiring in 2011 from a career in drug discovery research, he decided to learn more about the various woods growing across the globe, research and define how best he could enhance Mother Nature’s Wonderful Pallet, hence the name for his new focus…”Woods of the World, Mother Nature’s Pallet” was created.
With each creative idea comes a vision. Larry has the ability to convert that vision into a new product thereby revealing the inner beauty of the wood through its grain, which tells a story of the tree’s growth challenges. Whether it is a tree trunk or a small piece of wood from a tree, he will ultimately convert it to a unique piece of art that is more beautiful than the original piece. To him this process is similar to reacting molecules to create unusual 3-D structures to enhance their biological properties to make useful medicines for mankind.
For Larry, the experience of looking at a tree or a cut block of its wood is truly amazing. He envisions the inner potential and beauty within waiting to be revealed, and then brings new life to that piece of wood.
Larry creates unique three dimensional artworks that are not only beautiful, but also practical.
