Woodturning artist Nick Agar's large-scale, multi-textured turned wood sculptures, created at his riverside studio and gallery in Devon, have earned him a reputation for producing highly individual, beautifully crafted art.

Nick has traveled across the world to demonstrate his skills and has great  understanding of his medium .   Choosing  burrs and burls and intriguing wind blown or dead timber for the majority of his work,  - exposing natures treasures beneath the bark.

Inspired by organic forms, pottery, and his natural surroundings, he specialises in hollow forms and large diameter work, and is renowned for his wall sculptures in particular. His award-winning work often incorporates carving, weaving and metalwork.

In addition to exhibiting widely and appearing at international conferences both as a demonstrator and a judge, Nick is in constant demand for commissions from collectors, his wide range of clients including HRH Prince of Wales, Dukes, Duchesses and the Royal jewellers, Aspreys. He and his work have also featured on BBC and ITV lifestyle television programmes.

He is an elected member of the Devon Guild of Craftsmen, and a Registered Professional Turner. A member of the AWGB and AAW
