Stinson Studios is a family operated business located in rural Ontario. Don Stinson founded the studio over 25 years ago under the name Don Stinson Woodworks after his graduation from York University & Sheridan College's School of Craft and Design. Since then the business has grown to include all members of the family. The Stinson's spend the majority of their lives either in their rural studio or deeper in the Canadian wilderness. Woodworking functions as their medium to communicate elements of their relationship with nature. Each finished piece represents a unique balance between the human desire to impose our will on nature and the individual character of the material. A successful balance breathes life into the final form. Each Don Stinson object is crafted from Canadian hardwood and is safe for use with foods as it is finished with vegetable oil and bees wax. |
