Artists always sell their best work & this framed tile display is for sale danwalters@lumberjocks.com

Hello Lumberjocks

Thank you in advance for looking at my work.

titled: castle, field, road, rock and tree

Stoneware terracotta tile fired to 2375 degrees

Mortise and tenon quarter sawn white oak frame in my own original pagoda design. Elm corbels.

All of my tile designs start as a mahogany wood carving which is used to make the plaster mold used to press this tile.

One of my original Memphis tile designs …. Mahogany pattern made with dremel tool and sandpaper.

Tile landscape is based/inspired by a similar scene from a well known artist/tilest Ernest Batchelder

acid patina bronzed finish

Again … Thank you for looking at my work.

Regards DAN

Looks great Dan. It’s cool to see all the little details in the tile. Looks like relief carving. I’d be interested to see a “how to” on making the tiles. Thanks for sharing.

The mahogany pattern for this tile was carved with a set of carbide ball burrs and a dremel tool. Probably an airpencil too.

As always, another great piece. You have definitely got the “eye” for the Arts and Crafts design in these frames, not to mention the tiles. These are very much “true to style” pieces. If you haven’t already done so, I would suggest submitting you info and web site to http://www.hewnandhammered.com Just might stir up some more of the recognition these pieces deserve.

Hello Mark

I’m not serializing my work .. I did a few pieces, but lost track … figure it is too late now.

I do not date them either. What I do however is sign and write the location. I’m a nomad …

Dan Walters, OHIO
Dan Walters, McMinnville
Dan Walters, Memphis
Dan Walters, Bartlett
Dan Walters, Tennessee
Dan Walters, Milwaukee
Dan Walters, Denver
etc

I think it adds a little mystery and potential collect ability to the whole thing.
