ONE PIECE LEFT.

The Alaska Highway Series is officially down to its final original.

The Moose of La Barge is SOLD.
Pieces of the Valley is SOLD.

Which leaves just The Duelling Rams still available.

It has been pretty incredible watching this collection leave my studio one piece at a time, knowing each one is heading somewhere it will be enjoyed for years to come.

And now there is only one.

If you've had your eye on The Duelling Rams, this is the last opportunity to own an original piece from the Alaska Highway Series.

Send me a message if you'd like more information.

Every logo has a story behind it.

This piece was built around four elements, each one carrying meaning, each one representing something real about who this community is and where they come from.

My job was to take that and bring it to life in wood.

The layering, the stain work, the raised elements, the detail in every section.

This is identity.
Built to last.

Something you can stand in front of and actually feel the weight of.

If your business, your organization, or your community has a logo with a story behind it, this is what I do.

A custom logo piece is one of the most powerful things you can put on a wall. It tells people who you are before you say a word.

Reach out if you want to talk about what that could look like for you.

THE ART OF FRAMING

I get a lot of questions about my frames.

How I make them.
Why they are so different.
Where the ideas come from.

The answer is that I don't really look at a frame as something I add once the artwork is finished.

I look at it as part of the artwork.

So, I thought I would start sharing some of the stories behind them.

This wood bison piece is a perfect place to begin.

When I was designing the frame, I wanted it to feel substantial.

Dense.

Almost like you're looking through the heavy timber of an old cabin window and catching this incredible view on the other side.

That's why the frame has so much depth and texture to it.

The vertical pieces of wood create that dense, almost timbered feeling, while the different layers gradually draw your eye inward toward the bison.

Even the thickness of the frame was intentional.

A bison has weight and presence, and a thin, delicate frame simply wouldn't have carried the piece the same way.

And this frame exists for this piece only.

It isn't a standard frame that I built the artwork to fit.

It was designed and built specifically for this bison, right down to the proportions, layers, wood, texture and depth.

That's something you'll see a lot in my work.

Sometimes the frame is quiet and lets the artwork do most of the talking.

Sometimes, like this one, the frame becomes part of the story.

That's the art of framing.

Over the next while, I'm going to start sharing more of these frames, how they came together, why I made certain choices and how much thought actually goes into what surrounds the artwork.

Because sometimes the best view really does deserve the right window.

I still can't believe this is real.

This is the last week "The Highway That Built the North" is at the Dawson Creek Art Gallery, and if you haven't made it out yet, this is your window.

I didn't know what to expect when I finally got to share this journey, and what has come back has been more than I could have hoped for.

We do have a few pieces still available for purchase. If you've had your eye on one, now is the time.

Still available:

Pieces of the Valley
High Country Duel
Moose of Laberge
Guardians of the Highway

Reach out to the Dawson Creek Art Gallery directly if you're interested in bringing one home.

Come drive the highway one more time before it's gone.

I keep looking at this one and thinking about all the different directions it could go.

The Organic Stream is finished as a piece of art, but it could also become something incredibly personal.

Imagine giving this as a wedding or anniversary gift.
Something handmade, completely different, and meant to stay in their home for years.

Or, this is where I think it gets really interesting, imagine your company logo worked into it.

In a reception area, boardroom, office or lodge, it would be a pretty incredible way to bring your brand into the space without putting another standard sign on the wall.

It could also make an unforgettable corporate gift for a retirement, anniversary, milestone or someone who has made a real impact on the business.

The Organic Stream is now available at a reduced price, and if you have an idea for customizing it, send me a message.

I’d love to see where we could take it.

The Power of Oil
It's one of my favourite moments in the entire process.

Until the oil goes on, I never quite know what the wood is going to reveal. The g3rain becomes richer. The colours deepen. Details that were easy to miss suddenly tell their own story.

It's a reminder that no two pieces of wood are ever the same.

The oil doesn't create the beauty. It simply brings forward what was already there.

Every line, every variation in colour, and every unique pattern has spent years growing before it ever made its way into my hands. I just have the privilege of helping it become something new.
The final coat of oil is more than a fin
ish. It's the moment a piece truly comes to life.

Swipe to see the difference.

Today I finally got to see this sign hanging in its new home, and it never gets old. After spending hours designing, building, sanding, painting, and putting every little detail together, seeing it on the wall where it was meant to be is such a rewarding feeling.

This is why I love what I do. Taking an idea that starts in my workshop and turning it into something that welcomes people into a business every single day is pretty special.

A huge thank you to Callison Holte Law Corporation for trusting me with your vision. It was an honour to create this piece for you, and I hope it serves your office well for many years to come.

Every project has a story, and I feel lucky to be a small part of it. ❤️

A little change of pace from the Alaska Highway Collection.
These bright, bold logo pieces are headed to the new home of a fantastic local company, and I couldn't be more excited to see them become part of their space.
There's something special about creating pieces that represent the people and businesses helping build our community. I love creating pieces that make a connection.
