  • Woodwork Art Curated for Collectors

    All of the pieces of woodwork art to be found at Canvas & Bronze have their own story to tell, sometimes a unique tale of how it was discovered or how the artist created it. From wooden wall art to sculptural wood pieces, these original works all make individual use of the unique grain and other properties of wood. From devotional art painted on wood to wood relief works and wooden models, all of the art for collectors in our wooden collection has been curated by Canvas & Bronze for its sheer emotional resonance.

     

     

    Wood Sculpture and Other Art on Wood

    In common with our glass and ceramics collection, our woodwork art is often decorative and suited to display indoors. Some of our wood sculpture pieces provide opportunities to create centerpieces in more varied settings. In addition, we have numerous examples of art on wood that's been created specifically for wall mounting alongside paintings and so on. Such wooden wall art is curated for collectors with just the same care and attention to detail as canvas-based pieces.

     

     

    Caring for Artistic and Decorative Woodwork

    For carved wood art that will be displayed outside, we recommend an elevated position somewhere excessive moisture or wind exposure won't cause premature aging. Resealing and removing mildew a couple of times a year is advisable, especially in coastal areas. Indoors, maintaining humidity levels between 40 and 60% can help to prevent wooden wall art from cracking or warping. Don't mount decorative woodwork directly over radiators. Dusting with a microfiber cloth is often sufficient for maintenance purposes but seek professional guidance if you notice staining or fading.

    Can sculptural wood pieces be displayed outside?

    Carved wood art is often, but not always, designed for outdoor display. Woods like oak, cedar and cypress can withstand the elements well. Some artists stain their pieces to offer additional protection. More delicate, decorative woodwork might not be suited to external installations and we will advise you if this is the case with any of the unique wooden pieces you might be interested in.

     

     

    Can you help me choose wooden wall art?

    Yes, we can help you to choose decorative woodwork for your wall as well as carved wood art that is more sculptural. Whether you have a specific theme in mind or want something that is suitably sized, we will be able to offer guidance on all the pieces within our extensive collection and can help you to select other suitable pieces from our lagniappe collection, among others.

     

     

    What is a wood relief?

    A wood relief is a type of carved wood art in which a raised effect is created. Typically produced as wooden wall art, such sculptural wood pieces often have shallow carving, known as bas-relief. Wood relief pieces go back centuries and have a global significance.
