These pieces are created on wood from Oahu’s Waimea Valley, which is the highly revered Valley of The Priests. I am reusing wood  they have culled that might otherwise go to waste. This work is truly a collaboration between myself and the wood, as I find my composition in the wood grain, and use the natural lines to define details of each piece. I sometimes spend weeks hand sanding these pieces, so I grow very familiar with the intricacies of each one. They range from 2 to 4 inches thick and have the majority of their bark still intact. I am blessed to create with such a beautiful natural resource.
