Commission a unique homage to a special place:

It starts with a photo :

And now: a statement piece with a story!

It starts with a photo :

Begin your commission with a cherished photo that I can base my design from. If local, I can visit a site myself to take photos for the best starting image. I can turn your image into a floating shelf, wall hanging, tabletop or other creative idea! This is the California Club historic building in Auburn CA - an institution in Old Town here. 

Then the design begins:

And now: a statement piece with a story!

It starts with a photo :

I love playing with angles and perspective to make the features with character stand out in a unique and alluring way. I use repurposed wood panels for the backing - I use as much salvaged material as possible. 

And now: a statement piece with a story!

And now: a statement piece with a story!

And now: a statement piece with a story!

I carefully choose from an array of wood species to select the perfect color and grain pattern to create lines, shapes, shadows and perspective using my scroll saw. There is no stain used! Each piece is individually cut like a jigsaw puzzle. I also employ inlay material like real brass to highlight special features.
