This episode is a special edition of sorts where we actually talk about the process of making instead of getting all existential like we usually do… and although this is definitely not a “tool talk” it is more of a How Make! than a Why Make? this time around!
On Episode 39 of Why Make? we talk with Karen Ernst a maker and educator, who is currently a Professor in the Art Department at Edinboro University of Pennsylvania where she teaches woodworking and furniture design.
Originally from East Aurora, NY, Karen holds a BA in Studio Art from SUNY Geneseo and an MFA in Furniture Design from the Rhode Island School of Design
We talk with Karen about her process of making one of her colorful and uniquely shaped woodworking objects and follow her down a meandering path of creativity… from the germination of an idea, usually in her sketchbook, all the way to the final evaluation of her finished pieces.
Karen also talks to us about the intoxication of creating things people can use, her addiction to making and how it all began for her with an an eye opening field trip she took to Wendell Castle’s studio in Scottsville, NY.
So join us as we set off on a journey through one makers mind and their process of making.
