I want to introduce my art, both rustic and fine. I have coined a
term “Exoticwood Art” where I use exotic wood to form art. To view more of my work, go to www.carlwattsartist.com. To communicate with me directly, email me at carl@carlwattsartist.com. I look forward to your communication.

In the past I have constructed many artistic household items for my family. There is uniqueness to these things as they are individually constructed not for cost but for use, beauty and endurance. They are durable and aesthetic. Sometimes they are rustic and sometimes they are exotic but always custom designed.

In late 2005, I started making art pieces from exotic wood and picture frames for my family.  They created a big impact with aesthetics. This is "Exoticwood Art."

In 2006, the rustic "Stakebed Collection" was completed. A new series using exotic wood, the "Box Collection," was started in March 2006 and continues as I am commissioned. Other collections have been added: "Tray and Coaster Collection" and Chopping Boards/Blocks/Tables. These are aesthetic, beautiful custom pieces. Each is handcrafted, unique and branded.

People have come to our small shop where I make the Exoticwood Art pieces and exotic wood frames. Every person who has seen my work has been visibly impressed.

Normally, the exotic woods used have no stain or color added beyond sealing with lacquer, varnish, polyurethane or being oiled with tung or danish oil or other similar products.

So www.carlwattsartist.com was created to share the art created by myself and my family and by other artist.

Many of my art pieces can be reproduced by me to some degree and maybe custom ordered although no two pieces will ever be the same.

It is truly hoped that our creations create a pleasing effect and make your day a little brighter and possibly make your life better.

I would also like to include a bit of information about my son, Mitchell.

We share a shop in Sun Valley, CA , and often, tools and materials.

His art recently has been done mainly in metal. You must see the collection I have displayed. I call it Mitchafied Metal Art.

On 5/30/06, I opened up my site to publish the works of other artist in all fields of art. To see details on this, see "the Plan" on my site.

Last is the fact that I do other things. Click on "Services" on my site to see more.

I live in Tujunga, CA . I can be reached by email most easily. If you need to talk to me, email me and I'll call you as soon as possible! Click here to email me.
