https://www.bobrotche.com/Bob Rotche is a Virginia-based wood artist. He has worked with wood in one manner or
another for most of his life but it was exposure to the lathe and its ability to create smooth-flowing curves that really captured his imagination. He continues to use the lathe extensively but is now recognized more for his work with carving, color, and texture.
He states,
”I try to keep a very open and curious mind in my attitude towards wood art. There are so many approaches and techniques being pursued today that the opportunity to tell a story with wood has never been greater." Bob is involved with a number of local and online galleries and his work has been featured in numerous juried exhibitions and several magazines."
