Oak Seashell
$ 2,600.00
This wall sculpture was inspired by a scallop shell and carved from a beautiful piece of spalted pin oak. The form radiates outward from a central point, with deeply incised ridges creating a rhythmic fan pattern that echoes natural shell geometry. Rich variations in the wood grain accentuate the flowing contours, producing a sense of movement and depth. The irregular, undulating edge retains an organic quality, balancing precision craftsmanship with the spontaneity of natural growth. This is an end grain carving which is the most difficult orientation to pull off. It yields the best color and contrast between the sapwood & heartwood. It was sandblasted to showcase the grain and the medullary rays.

Spiral Galaxy 3
This sculpture is a wall-mounted relief carved from a single piece of Black Walnut. The wood grain is a central visual element: layered bands of light and dark tones follow the spiral’s motion, enhancing the sense of rotation and depth. The carving is highly dimensional, with undulating ridges and recessed channels that create dramatic shadows, making the surface feel almost geological or fluid, as if the wood were flowing inward.
The spiral suggests multiple interpretations: a whirlpool, vortex, galaxy, or natural force such as wind or erosion. The central hole acts as a focal point, evoking ideas of origin, collapse, or infinite motion. The slightly irregular lower edge contrasts with the precise square format, reinforcing a tension between natural processes and human design.
Overall, the sculpture feels dynamic and immersive, combining organic texture with strong geometric framing, and invites contemplation of movement, time, and natural energy frozen in wood.

White Oak Shell
Wall sculpture carved from a beautiful piece of spalted white oak.
The form radiates outward from a subtle focal point near its base, its deeply sculpted ribs unfold like the fan of a scallop shell.
The overall effect is one of quiet elegance and natural permanence. It recalls the geometry of marine life, the weathered textures of driftwood, and the passage of time recorded in annual growth rings. Simultaneously sculptural and geological, the work invites contemplation of nature’s ability to create beauty through repetition, growth, and gradual transformation. It stands as a celebration of organic form—where wood becomes shell, landscape, and memory all at once. It was sandblasted to showcase the grain and finished with Danish oil to a satin finish.
