Hand Carved Wall Panel in Walnut

About the Item

On a road trip from LA to Seattle, while passing through a small village on the Oregon coast, my fiance and I decided to stop by the Salishan Lodge to view the architecture and the artwork of Leroy Setziol. The lodge was beautiful, however the wall mounted sculptures were life changing. Working from local PNW woods, mostly walnut, Leroy carved panels by hand guided mostly by his intuition and inspired by the natural world around him. I was so struck by these works that by the time we returned to the studio three weeks later my head was full of ideas for a carving. I immediately took to assembling a panel of black walnut off cuts and went to work. Thus began a series of works that is ongoing to this day. I make sketches in my notebook when inspiration strikes; usually while out in nature. Then compile those sketches into a comprehensive body that is essentially a narrative etched in the grain of local hardwoods, usually black walnut. This particular piece is inspired by coastal scenery here in Southern California. The sun, the mountains, chaparral, and of course the emerald Pacific waters. My attempt with this piece was to convey the interaction of the each element; to communicate the dance that is performed between them.

Beachcomber Counter Stool in Walnut
By Greg Mitchell
Located in Los Angeles, CA
Light and strong, the Beachcomber Counter Stool evokes the sight of an old wooden single hull; it's lean, sturdy mast together with the rigging worthy of the high seas. Constructed of hand shaped legs and stretchers, each piece is carefully fit and pinned with hardwood pegs and wedges to last for generations, much like the sea craft that inspire them. For every bar stool, we start with scrupulously chosen lumber; each board must consist of straight grain and have absolutely no defects. This is not just for aesthetics, the clear grain gives the stool its strength. The boards are then milled to dimension and shaped by hand using a combination of machines and time honored hand tools. They are then given a polish by taking thin shavings with well sharpened planes and spokeshaves; rarely is sandpaper used in our shop. Once assembled, the Beachcomber bar stool...
