Heart 4"

$80

This is not a manufactured object — it is a decision made by decades of skilled hands, coaxed out of a single piece of natural walnut with nothing but carving tools and an artist's instinct. Mel Johnson's carved walnut heart pulses with the full drama of the wood itself: sweeping grain lines arc across the surface like rings of time, shifting from deep mahogany shadow to warm honey amber in a single glance. Every curve is deliberate, every contour earned. This piece represents the most iconic body of work from Wildgoose Mountain Woodcrafts — a signature heart form that collectors recognize immediately and reach for instinctively. Smooth, tactile, and radiantly finished, it commands a room whether displayed on a shelf, a mantle, or a collector's desk. Natural walnut of this figure and clarity is increasingly rare, and no two hearts Mel carves are ever the same — the wood itself ensures that. For collectors who want something real — something that carries the weight of a life lived in wood — this is it. A one-of-a-kind sculptural work from a Las Vegas artist with roots in the mountains of Utah, now represented at PTG & AV Gallery. Acquire it before someone else does.
