Water's Pathway
- Unit price
- / per
Water is always moving. It falls from the sky, flows through rivers and lakes, disappears into the earth, rises again into the atmosphere, and moves through living things. Its form changes, but the water itself continues on its pathway through the world.
I am fascinated by the idea that the water in our own bodies has been part of this continuous cycle for an unimaginably long time. The wood in this piece once held water as a living tree, just as our bodies depend upon it now. We are all connected through this movement.
Water's Pathway is a reflection on water as our most essential shared resource. Its abundance can make it easy to take for granted, yet everything depends upon it. I made this piece as a meditation on the many ways water moves through the living world and through our own lives.
Cherry and pine wood, glass mosaic. 80 x 24 x 18 in.
Made to order, please allow 6–8 weeks. This piece is an original, hand-carved work based on a design I've created before. While the composition is consistent, each piece is individually made and may vary slightly in color, grain, and detail.

Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth or feather duster. Avoid direct sunlight and high-humidity environments, which can cause wood to expand, contract, or fade over time. If you have questions about caring for your specific piece, feel free to reach out.

Care and the handmade promise
Dust gently with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid direct sunlight and high humidity, which can affect the wood over time. Each piece is finished with a protective topcoat, so no oiling, waxing, or additional treatment is needed — simply keep it clean and out of harsh conditions to preserve its natural matte finish.
Because each piece is handmade, small differences in grain, tone, and surface are natural. The variation is the signature of something made by a person, not a machine.
Each order is wrapped by hand and packed to travel safely. Made-to-order pieces typically take 6 to 8 weeks to complete, with larger or more complex pieces taking up to 3 months. You'll receive tracking as soon as it leaves the studio.
All sales on made-to-order and custom pieces are final. If your piece arrives damaged, please contact us with photos within 10 days of delivery, and we'll arrange a repair, replacement, or refund.
