Faces of the Craft: Rosanna Coyne
It was in a class at the North Bennet Street School where Rosanna Coyne discovered carving, and found the passion that changed the course of her woodworking journey.
Synopsis: Rosanna Coyne began making furniture as a child, and continued her woodworking education in a traditional manner as an adult by taking classes at North Bennet Street School. It was in one of those classes that she discovered carving, and found the passion that changed the course of her woodworking journey.
Master wood carver and wood turner Rosanna Coyne was introduced to the hands-on life at an early age. Her mother and father both emigrated to the United States from Sicily, Italy, and did things the old way. Her mom canned the produce from her father’s big garden. He worked as a general contractor, and Rosanna followed him around job sites from the time she was 9 or 10 years old, filling nail holes in trim or whatever she could do to be useful.
Phil Lowe: A craftsman and gentleman
Two woodworkers, Will Neptune and Steve Brown, remember their mentor.
Synopsis: Woodworking lost one of its giants in January 2021 with the passing of Philip C. Lowe, teacher and master of period furniture making, founder of the Furniture Institute of Massachusetts, sailor, scholar, writer, and friend. Here the woodworking community remembers one of our own.
Woodworkers like Philip C. Lowe don’t come along often. In fact, humans like him are a rare commodity, combining extraordinary talent with more than average levels of kindness and generosity, and on top of that the passion and temperament to teach for decades. While he can’t be summed up with a few titles, Phil was a father, husband, tradesman, sailor, teacher, scholar, writer, mentor, and, above all, a friend. His life was full. His loss is profound.
