“Transition Blue” — Contemporary Wood Wall Art

Original Mixed Hardwood Sculpture by Craig Forget

“Transition Blue” is part of my ongoing Transition Collection, a body of work exploring tonal movement, natural gradients, and the interplay between raw wood and vivid color. In this piece, warm hardwoods merge seamlessly with layered blue tones, creating a serene, horizon-like composition that shifts from earth to sky.

The artwork measures 22” × 32” and is crafted entirely by hand in my professional studio.

Artistic Composition

This sculptural wall piece is built from a curated blend of natural hardwoods, each chosen for its color, grain, and warmth:

• Black Walnut

• White Oak

• Hickory

• Maple

• Douglas Fir

• Cedar

• Sycamore

These species create the neutral gradient, while the blue elements are achieved using a custom dye formula I prepare in the studio. Three different wood species are stained using the same dye, producing three distinct shades of blue, each absorbing color in its own unique way.

The final surface is sealed with two coats of water-based clear finish, ensuring long-term stability with zero maintenance required.

Made to Order for Collectors

Each “Transition Blue” artwork is individually handmade to order, ensuring integrity, precision, and the preservation of the original design’s character. Because reclaimed and natural woods vary, every piece carries its own subtle uniqueness.

Before shipping, I will send you detailed photographs for final approval.
