Dennis works with locally grown sycamore, holly, ash and maple; the white woods offer a natural canvas on which to incorporate a wide range of finishing techniques.  
 
He uses turned, carved, textured surfaces finished with water soluble dyes and metal leaf to enhance the natural features of the wood to achieve a sympathetic balance of form and finish. His work includes fruit displays, sycamore bowls embellished with silver leaf and wall plates of ash with copper leaf. 
 
He is a member of the Norfolk Contemporary Craft Society and the Association of Woodturners of Great Britain. 
 
Work is sold through galleries, exhibitions and craft events. 
 
Commissioned work has included; table centre fruit dishes, gold leaf bowls and wedding anniversary wall platters.
