What you see is what I got.

I even searched for additional pictures using the title information for this picture. No luck.

Google-fu!

Herb DeLoach, the builder, responded to my email query:
Hey John
The shading is actually the wood itself.I use full length strips and match them up on the shop floor before I start a build
so I pretty well know what it is going to look like before the boat is built.
These were cut and grooved for me by Joe Greenly at Redfish kayaks in Port Townsend,WA
The real dark is walnut---small lighter strip in the combing(1/16") is Alaskan Yellow cedar.
Lighter wood on the deck is Alaskan Yellow cedar.
Hope this helps
Herb
