KEITH SCHOONOVER
Keith graduated high school with a strong background in cabinet making and a love for the tree covered mountains of Frederick County, MD. By 1989 he started operating a portable sawmill with which he demonstrated sawing at various local events. He eventually used that mill to build a life, and a home. He designed, cut the material for, and built a log and timber frame home for his family below Gambrill State Park. While serving on the Frederick County Forest Conservancy Board for many years, currently as chair, Keith continues to operate his mill as well as craft one-of-a-kind functional art pieces. His work features wood from salvaged trees; trees that had to come down or have died on the stump. Specializing in natural edge pieces, Keith's craftsmanship allows each table, shelf or piece that he creates to tell it's own story.
