Bob Antonishak lives in West Chester, PA. He is on the board of directors of the Pennsylvania Guild of Craftsmen and President of the Chester County Craft Guild chapter. In 2006, he taught himself the Nantucket basket weaving process and has since completed nearly 200 baskets. In 2015 he took up woodturning to expand his Nantucket basket molds, rims, bases, and lids capabilities and enhancements. His woodturning expanded to creating turned bowls, pens, and lidded boxes. Since 1995 Bob and his family have been making Ukrainian Pysanky dyed eggs during the Easter season.
