►WOOD: Locally sourced desert hardwood is uniquely hand-crafted and custom designed from weathered-down trees recovered around metropolitan Phoenix, Arizona areas. Acquiring these logs allows me to create 100% sustainable art, repurposed live edge wood designs. Handmade in North Peoria, Arizona. ►FRACTALART: It’s a process of applying thousands of voltage on the wood recreating lightning strikes in random slow motion making unique abstract figures, tree and vein like shapes on the surface of the wood. It is sealed with epoxy inlay ink self-leveling high gloss U.V. resistant formula. *Warning: Don’t try this at home. It is fatal and deadly. ►EPOXY: Self-leveling high gloss U.V. resistant formula epoxy with color pigment is added to seal the burns created during fractal art process on the surface of the wood. The colors available are: (Arizona Gold, Army Green, Black, Blue Metallic, Cardinal Metallic, Caribbean Blue, Emerald Metallic, Golden Yellow, Hawaiian Blue, Hunter Green, Orange, Purple Metallic, Red, Sky Blue, Teal Metallic, Turquoise Blue, White) ►OIL FINISH: Hand rubbed finish using Osmo Poly-X clear satin oil to bring out the natural beauty of wooden surfaces. ►USE AND CARE: To revitalize desert hardwood, apply UltraPro Mineral Oil and wipe off excess. UltraPro® Food Grade White Mineral Oil helps maintain and preserve charcuterie board surfaces. It is colorless, odorless, and tasteless mixtures of saturated paraffinic and naphthenic hydrocarbons. ►DIMENSIONS: Size will vary from 20-24” length, 8” to 12” width and 3/4” to 1-1/4” thickness. ►CUSTOM ORDERS: Please contact gariechavez@gmail.com or call 623-533-9376 for custom order request, laser engraving, epoxy color or design style shape. ►ENGRAVING: Personalize laser engraving is included in the price.
►ABOUT THE ARTIST: Garie Chavez [Artisan/Musician/Luthier] – I have been designing live edge wood art since 2015. In 2020, I started making custom handmade guitar hangers with fractal art and ocean waves resin art for celebrity musicians. By 2023, I built my first custom handmade electric guitar with fractal art design. Patience, persistence, passion and attention to detail are the key ingredients to my work. My goal is for my clients to have a unique piece of art that they cherish, and know that it is truly one of a kind and made especially for them. Thank you for having my art in your home.
