Why "Walnut Mountain Creative"
Walnut is my favorite wood to work with — I love the grain, the smell, the way it finishes. Mountains are where I'd rather be than almost anywhere else, hiking with my family. And creative, because I love making things, working with my hands, and I think we were designed to be creative. Put it together, and you get Walnut Mountain Creative.
G.K. Chesterton once wrote that children ask for the same story again and again, not because they're bored, but because they're so full of life that repetition feels like joy. He wondered if that's the same reason the sun rises every morning and the moon every night — our Father, younger than we are, still saying it to them: do it again.
I live in Youngsville, North Carolina. I've been married to my wife Shannon for eighteen years, and we have four kids. When they were little, I'd toss them in the air, and they'd shout "do it again" before my arms had even recovered.
I think about that every time I finish a piece for someone. A closing that's really the start of a family's next adventure. A groundbreaking on something someone's poured years into, finally ready to flourish. A deal that opens the door to what's waiting.
That's what Walnut Mountain Creative is for. I don't need my name on it. I just want to help you give your client that same feeling — the one my kids have in the air, the one Chesterton says God has every morning. Do it again. Stand there, and let this moment be worth savoring.
