Artists I Admire
Name: Cindy Drozda
Address: http://www.cindydrozda.com
Cindy is an amazing artist with a generous and friendly spirit. I was able to spend 2 glorious days with her in private lessons in her Boulder, CO studio. She and her partner, David Nittmann (http://www.davidnittmann.com/) share their studio home with their 3 cats. I dream of being able to live in my "studio" :-)

Name: Jim Syvertsen
Address: http://www.jimsyvertsen.com/
Amazing artist, generous instructor. Also offers Australian Burls (http://www.jimsyvertsen.com/australianburlsdotcom/index.html) for sale. His work is quite similar to Cindy Drozda's. I'm not sure if they ever shared studio time, but both are extremely talented.

Name: Tiberio Yepez
Address: http://www.tiberioyepez.com/
Tiberio is a fellow member of the Long Island Woodturners' Association. I hold my breath every meeting to see what he will put on the Show & Tell table. He's amazingly talented and humble and he freely shares his techniques. Beyond turning, Teberio is an extraordinary furniture designer. If I had a mansion I would commission him to fill it!

Resources & Services
Name: GeekHat
Address: http://www.geekhat.com
What can I say? Unbelievable service. They've actually fixed/tweaked things for me from Blackberrys in parking lots. I created the layout and graphics, gave them the mock up and Viola! They expertly converted my 'picture' into a functional, dynamic and enjoyable website that works/looks consistent in all browsers in under a week. Yes, I am a Web application developer during the day, but I had NO desire to spend quality turning time doing "work".
