About the wood:
Mesquite (Prosopis Sp.) is native to Arizona and the Southwest.
Also, other mesquite varieties native to Chile and Argentina
have been introduced into Arizona as landscape trees because of
their fast growth and adaptability. Mesquite is a heavy, hard
wood that is lustrous and ages to a warm reddish-brown color.
The artist uses only Mesquite salvaged from discarded trees
destined to the landfill or firewood lots.
Available through Blue Rain Gallery
