Wolf Spirit Flutes





Wolf Spirit Flutes was born after Tony Richards made a magical visit to my home here in Montana, shortly after I started playing the flute. Tony is from Australia and was in the United States visiting flute makers and flute players. I am honored to say that he started me on my flute making journey. The name, Wolf Spirit Flutes is based primarily from my love for wolves. I have four wolf-dogs in my family; they are a huge inspiration for my flutes.


Wolf Spirit Flutes are a Plains style flute. I use a few basic power tools; table saw, planer and router, and the rest of each flute is made by my hands. I pour a great deal of love and warmth into each flute I make. I take my time, paying close attention to each stage of the flute making process. I do not believe in cutting corners, or rushing my flutes. Simply put, I put my whole heart and all my love into each flute I make.


Using specifications obtained from various formulas, software programs and other techniques, I make most of my flutes in the keys of middle E, F, F#, and G. Wolf Spirt Flutes are traditionally tuned, where I strive for the most beautiful sounding flute. I pay close attention to assuring that each note blends with and compliments the notes above and below it. I focus not only on a beautiful sounding flute, but for a beautiful looking flute as well. I use a variety of woods; walnut, butternut,redwood, bloodwood, rosewood, curly birch, maple, old growth coastal fir, and yellow pine.


I have added some flutes to my picture library. If you are interested in taking a look at a few of my flutes, follow the link below.

I have also included an incredible true story about my dog, Takano. Follow the link below for his story.


The flute above is made out of walnut, in the key of high A. It is a beautiful flute with a crisp, bright and clear voice.
