Drawing from my background in graphic design and woodworking, I explore how light, color, repetition, and material choice can transform a familiar graphic form into something expressive and atmospheric. The piece combines walnut, layered acrylic, and custom lighting to create a lamp that not only illuminates a room physically, but also changes how the space feels. Along the way, the build includes experimentation, mistakes, problem-solving, and a few moments of genuine surprise. Ultimately resulting in a finished piece that exceeded my expectations. ★ TOOLS / SUPPLIES (affiliate links) ★ Miter Saw: https://amzn.to/3QRprDf Planer: https://amzn.to/46tDYeh Finish: https://youtu.be/lHTj38KTrFk Yellow Push Block: https://amzn.to/347PTUB CA Glue (Provided by Total Boat): https://bit.ly/3w7xcyE Drill Press: https://amzn.to/3SRXNsH Little Bandsaw: https://amzn.to/3sNqkVB Table Saw: https://amzn.to/3GbM9Bm Jointer: https://amzn.to/3SQrTMW Drum Sander: https://amzn.to/45rKNhv Corner Clamps: https://amzn.to/3xGIXgh Tape Dispenser: https://amzn.to/42KwNyb Digital Angle Gauge: https://amzn.to/3CwtPPY Vacuum: https://bit.ly/3wcVFiX Vacuum Bag: https://bit.ly/3AxuUbK Metal Chop Saw: https://amzn.to/3pHGQ4m Green Tape: https://amzn.to/34doY9U Hand Drill: https://amzn.to/37Ca4fx Shark Router: https://bit.ly/3QN5ezF Wide Blue Tape: https://amzn.to/3LRNL9H Aluminum Foil Tape: https://amzn.to/49rPQCo LED Lights: https://amzn.to/4b47Q74 Acrylic Cement: https://amzn.to/3ZeBejF ★ ART SHOW DETAILS★ Saturday, June 20th.
