Unlike some, Onari Cowan did not develop his woodworking skill in official training or an apprenticeship.
“No one taught me woodworking. I didn’t have a mentor. It’s a skill I learnt on my own and just perfected with practice over time,” says the owner and operator of Kingston Woodworks.
The 24-year-old Jamaica College old boy intended to become a electrical engineer and so pursued a degree in the area at the University of Technology, Jamaica.
Unable to secure a job in the field, Cowan began making floating shelves and wooden pieces for the home and office.
But it was his first commissioned job, a wooden entertainment centre, which inspired Cowan to apply his skills to make a living.
Today, he offers a wide range of customized furniture and wooden pieces to individuals and corporate clients.
He also makes floating vanity for bathrooms and wooden signs.
