Views of Sequim, the Olympic Peninsula. . .and beyond
This wood sculpture was on display at Edensaw Woods when we stopped there recently. Entitled “Mesa Thunder” it’s by J. Chester Armstrong who is described as “The world’s foremost chainsaw sculpture [sic] from Three Sisters Oregon.”
The detail and movement of the sculpture is gorgeous. (It can be yours for $60,000.)
A stop at Edensaw Woods was a reason for a recent trip to Port Townsend. In addition to saw blades — our excuse for going — they have a selection of domestic and exotic lumber unlike anything you’re likely to find in a standard lumber yard. Married to a woodworker, I’ve developed an appreciation for wood grain that’s probably dangerous. This stuff is expensive.
They have raw materials that are exquisite. Not to mention the wood scent is heavenly. Oh, the things that could be made!
