““He who works with his hands is a laborer. He who works with his hands and his head is a craftsman. He who works with his hands, his head, and his heart is an artist.” ”

— St. Francis of Assisi

WHO WE ARE

Hi! I’m Patrick, the artist behind Virtuous Woodworking. Carpentry has been part of my life since my early years, working alongside my dad in his home renovation business. I left for the Navy in 2010, but the pride and satisfaction of hand-crafted projects drew me back in. In 2015 I decided to build on my past experience and take it to the next level, honing my skills on fine woodworking projects. One of my favorite things is transforming rough materials into beautiful, intricate finished-products. In the meantime, wood working has encouraged a similar transformation for me, helping me develop many virtues, most especially patience. As the saying goes, “Woodworking minus patience equals firewood.”

SERVICES

Virtuous Woodworking specializes in furniture and other heirloom pieces, from big to small, along with signs, cutting boards, coasters, etc. Personalization/engraving through wood burning is available. Take a look at my gallery. Have something in mind that you would like built and don’t see it there? Let’s talk! I take requests for many items and customization.
