I love to help my clients express their lifestyle with unique, custom wood signs for their homes and to mark important events like weddings, baby showers, new family members, new home purchases, or memorials. I design and execute all of my wooden signs by hand; I don't use vinyl cutting machines, so each custom painted sign comes out a little different from the last. My lettering is unique; but I can customize my fonts to suit your style. I've always loved letters, typesetting, and the printed word. My first paying job was as a calligrapher for a photo studio. I studied commercial art briefly, but I'm basically self-taught. I've also written and illustrated children's books and have several published books.

After more than 30 years in the custom wood door business, I'm pretty sure that wood is in my DNA. I've done everything from designing doors, metalwork and leaded glass to designing brochures, and heading up marketing and sales. Life has recently brought us to a new place, and now I do hand painted and wood burned signs for a living. Here at our home in the Georgia countryside, we have abundant trees, and it's paradise for a wood junkie like me! What I love most about wood is that no two boards look exactly the same--and each species of wood reacts differently to my wood burning tools and paint brushes. Even when wood is sanded smooth, pine feels different than alder or fir when you paint letters on it, so each of my custom wood signs is unique. Yep, I'm definitely a wood nerd.
My Inspiration

My Inspiration
My workshop is situated on forested land, with lakes and rivers all around. Deer, squirrels, ducks and birds are more frequent visitors than the human variety. When I need to take a break from a project, I usually make a fresh cup of coffee and throw axes at a target in the woods for a while before heading back to work on my custom painte
My workshop is situated on forested land, with lakes and rivers all around. Deer, squirrels, ducks and birds are more frequent visitors than the human variety. When I need to take a break from a project, I usually make a fresh cup of coffee and throw axes at a target in the woods for a while before heading back to work on my custom painted projects. It's an awesome form of meditation and it's great exercise too. We love our land and our trees, and we take seriously our stewardship of this land. We find that taking care of our natural environment gives back to our creativity every day in a new way. My customers inspire me too. Making signs for their big life events reminds me that I'm part of a larger community, and that we humans are all connected.
in the studio
I started my studio in the beach town of Ventura, California in 2017. In 2020 we moved to beautiful Woodstock, Georgia where nature and country living are a constant inspiration for my work. I design, cut and assemble custom wood signs by hand using reclaimed wood, and I hand letter each one.
