Photo Carvings

Very finely detailed half-tone carvings of photos in premium Maple.

  • A series of lines cut, where the balance between the width of the cut, the painted line and the carved wide lines adjacent to narrow undisturbed surface = darker area
  • Narrow lines adjacent to wider undisturbed areas = lighter area

Relief Carvings

3D photo carvings you can touch, rendered by creating a height map of the photo. Entire surface of wood is carved away.

  • Rendering is achieved by creating a height map of the photo.
  • Darker areas cut deeper, lighter areas cut shallower.
  • The painted carving is lightly and selectively sanded to lighten the tone of the paint on the physically higher portions, leaving the darker areas untouched, thereby revealing the original photo’s contrast.

Halftone Carvings

Designed to evoke an ultra-modern, high-tech feel Photos carved with wider, deeper lines.

  • Essentially the same as a Photo Carving except that the lines are much wider (and consequently deeper) and spaced further apart and the carvings are done on painted MDF or other suitable material with a core that contrasts with it’s surface.
  • Larger in size than Photo and Relief Carvings better viewed from across the room than up close.

Lithophane Light Boxes

Carved into translucent plastic, the photo is backlit to bring the image beautifully to life.

  • Essentially the same as a Relief Carving except that the carving height map is a negative of the Relief Carving height map
  • Lighter areas carved deeper, darker areas carved shallower and that the Lithophane is carved into a translucent plastic.
  • When backlit the full contrast of the original photo is revealed as the light strongly passes through the thinner parts and more weakly through the thicker parts.
  • A box that holds a Lithophane providing a frame and a space behind the Lithophane for a lighting source to properly display the Lithophane.
