Liam Johnson

Liam Johnson

Scouring the beach for driftwood is my form of meditation.

Liam was born and raised on Salt Spring Island, BC and considers himself quite blessed to have a wonderful family close by, a most beautiful partner, and, as he gushes; an eight-month old daughter who is the most remarkable inspiring happy young lady I have ever met. I am grateful to be alive.

He admits that searching for driftwood on the beaches is a little bit of an obsession of his … but then he also sees it as his form of meditation. And the best thing for Liam is, driftwood is a completely renewable resource!

I have always been into Driftwood art, not just crib boards. The first crib board I attempted had only 97 holes, hand drilled and hideous looking. Since then they have come a long way.

Liam’s Dad, who has a carpentry background, has always made things from driftwood too, so Liam comes by it honestly. My Dad gave me a pocket knife at a young age and I have been carving things out of wood ever since. I would say my Dad has been the most creative influence in my life. 

What I like about it most is its simplicity and elegance. It's not only a bunch of holes drilled into a piece of wood. Each piece is unique and has a story to tell. The key is to keep the live edges in tact and show off the curves. I believe each piece of wood has beauty and soul and I find ways to show it off.
