Bring the powerful, rhythmic beauty of the Pacific Northwest coastline into your home with "Lighthouse on a Rocky Shore." This 2026 original piece is a masterclass in dimensional storytelling, blending the precision of modern maker-tools with the expressive soul of traditional fine art.
The Artistry & Process
Crafted from four layers of sculptural birch plywood, this piece creates a physical depth that invites the viewer to look closer. Every element is purposefully layered to emphasize the drama of the coast:
Dimensional Sculpting: The 0.7-inch depth allows for a stunning play of light and shadow, particularly where the crashing waves meet the rugged, hand-stained rock formations.
Translucent Glazing: I utilize acrylic translucent glazes to color the wood while allowing the natural, organic beauty of the birch grain to remain visible, acting as a secondary texture within the art.
Impressionistic Details: The sky and sea are finished with energetic, impressionistic brushstrokes, capturing the movement of the lighthouse beam and the churning ocean spray.
Product Specifications

A Story in Every Layer
Inspired by a lifetime of PNW hiking and a career spent creating visual narratives in the film industry, "Lighthouse on a Rocky Shore" is more than a painting—it is a built environment. Whether displayed as a focal point in a modern living space or as part of a curated gallery wall, it serves as a beacon of craftsmanship and natural wonder.
