TOMATO PEPS’

‘Tomato Peps’ is a laser etched illustration that was originally a stencil. Most seasons, I try to get cherry tomatoes planted in the spring if possible. I always get excited when the fruits finally appear, even more as they ripen up. I’ve spent a lot of time fascinated by the rapid way the plants unfurl, the lines inspire me.

NUMINOUS

Numinous was an opportunity to create a laser etched sandwich board for a cannabis extraction company.

It’s sealed with BIOSHIELD© Hard Oil, a superior low VOC penetrating finish & finished with BIOSHIELD© Hardwax #32.

Each is 1/8″ thick multiply with a natural rubber bottom piece to prevent slippage. All are unfinished with a preference for the natural tone of the grain. These lightweight & stylish coasters can be sold individually as well as in […]
