Patheal, Don
Artist Statement
I started my woodworking and furniture making while in my early 30’s when my sons were growing up. I began making planter boxes, birdhouses, wooden trees and flowers.
Over the years I graduated to children’s unfinished furniture and sold them wholesale to several stores.
The next progression of my craft over a 20 year period was collaborating with my wife Teri Applegarth making mosaic topped furniture. We showed and sold our work at craft shows and in galleries in California.
In 2007 we sold our home in California and moved to Central Oregon. We fell in love with Sisters, OR and opened Don Terra Artworks the same year. We created a venue for artists and crafters to show their work as well. It’s an honor and very rewarding to showcase all these artists as well as my own.
