About the Artist, Alan Adler:
Alan Adler has a graduate degree in Design from Pratt Institute. He is the founder of Source Packaging and Cases by Source dedicated to producing custom packaging for industry. He took up wood turning in 2009. He has received awards at regional competitions and international recognition from peers from “The World of Wood Turners.”
“For many years I was searching for a material and process to reconnect with my design roots and personal creative expression. Always drawn to wood and furniture building, I discovered turning. Nothing measures up to the excitement and discovery of peeling away layers of wood and exposing hidden treasures in grain, texture and color. Major influences in my work come from studying art history and twentieth century masters. Observing simple and elegant forms, textures and patterns and viewing nature have inspired organic relevance that can all be seen throughout my work.” - Alan Adler
