Mark Scott works from a small workshop in Brea, Cornwall, creating functional art from locally sourced Cornish wood. A professional woodturner for the past seven years, with over fifteen years of experience at the lathe, his practice is rooted in a deep respect for the natural character of his materials.

Mark is drawn to the inherent beauty of wood—its grain, texture, and quiet individuality—and allows these qualities to guide each piece. His work is finished exclusively with natural, organic oils and waxes, chosen to enhance rather than obscure the material’s integrity.

After more than four decades touring the world with bands, Mark found himself increasingly drawn to nature and handmade objects. Wood, in particular, consistently captured his attention, offering both a creative anchor and a sense of grounding. Today, his work reflects this journey: thoughtful, tactile pieces that celebrate simplicity, craftsmanship, and a lasting connection to the natural world.
