Michael Salemi

I began turning in 2011 and became a member of CHW in 2014.  I enjoy turning bowls of various shapes and sizes as well as turning non-standard forms. Here are some examples of my recent work.

In 2015, I was juried into the Orange Country Artists Guild (http://www.orangecountyartistsguild.com/)

From 2016 through 2020, I was a member of Hillsborough Gallery of Arts (http://hillsboroughgallery.com/).
