 This new double sided hand carved sign is hanging in front of a great little jewellery shop in the quaint Edgemont Village area of North Vancouver. The clean and elegant lines mirror the beautiful work done in this award winning store

The Meatery

 Here is a new sign for The Meatery which is a great new sandwich and beer stop located in North Vancouver. As part of the Windsor Meat chain this cozy spot is going to be a hot new place to stop in for a fabulous lunch.

Lynnwood Marina Sign

Here is the new sign I made for the Lynnwood Marina in North Vancouver where coincidentally my shop is located. Notice the cleats on the sides of the deck with some rope lashed to the one on the left. If you happen to be in North Vancouver you must drop in at the Marina Grill and enjoy a great meal out on the deck overlooking the boats.

Man Cave Barrel

If you have a “man cave” then this might work for you. The Neanderthal man I carved into this barrel top will be hanging in just such a cave.

Wine Cellar

 I was recently contacted by a wine cellar design and installation company from Istanbul and they sent this classic design to me to carve into a barrel top. I’m not sure where the final resting place for this piece is but I’m happy with the result.

The Harley Davidson Barrel

 For this client I thought it more    effective to carve the Harley “buzzard” than carving a motorcycle. If you listen closely you’ll hear the well known throaty growl  associated with all these iconic bikes.

Sharky’s Chophouse Menu Board

Well known local butcher and hot food specialist “Sharky’s Chophouse” now has a new menu board on which they can advertise their great food specials.

I made the two meat cleavers out of wood and fabricated the world renowned red and white checkered table cloth from canvas which I shaped, fiberglassed and then painted the checkered design.
