Works by Tristan

Listed below for your viewing pleasure is a compilation of the creations designed and handcrafted by Tristan de Warrell.

Tristan is a simple man, but a true Renaissance man, with the soul of a dreamer and the heart of a teacher. He is able to manifest thoughts into works of art. His love for creation sparks action into those who never knew they could, to raise their hand and feel rewarded for the simple effort of trying something new. His patience and good humour envelope those watching, touching the soul and awakening what once was known and forgotten to be known again.

Enjoy these creations of Tristan's and know that each has kindled the desire in another to try their hand and learn the skills of those that have been forgotten.
