...and now for something completely different

[sawduster]

I have always wanted to try some " natural edge " scrolling and thanx to the generosity of Tracy and some free cedar I finally got the chance
The design is mine loosely based on a piece of Dover clip art

This was a very fun and satisfying project. It was a nice challenge lookin for the design in the grain and making the pattern to fit . Look for more of the same as I also scored some nice cedar from Rod on the last lumber run :icon_thum

Thanx for lookin :mrgreen:

Robert, that is GREAT!!!! Having watched the Monty Python movie by that name just the other night, I did open this thread with some trepidation... :rofl:

I see the bird, but with a bit of imagination, I can also see a stomping foot in the larger pattern

Very nice work Robert - you have definitely shown you know the 'rules' AND how to break 'em. I think it's called art! :eusa_clap :eusa_clap

I think you got sunshine on a rainy afternoon! Kewl way to use the wood for the sun and peacock.

Robert, that is awesome, glad you could get some use out of the cedar.:wink_smil

Now that is what I call letting the wood speak to you....and listening to it :eusa_clap:eusa_clap:eusa_clap:eusa_clap

Robert,
Another incredible piece! I can't wait to see some more!!!

I might want to commission you for a piece in the future. I don't know the cost...maybe I could trade you some wood for one.

Just think a year ago you only knew how to scroll on plywood. Bro you get more impressive with every piece. You are truly gifted my friend.

That's pretty cool. Andy (CaptnA) his wife and I found a goose in one of the boards. Good use of mother nature's art.

 

[taandctran]

That is a great idea. I have never thought of that, or seen anything like that before. I mave have to give that a try someday.

 

[DavidF]

Speechless! that is a wonderful piece of art - get to a gallery with it and see what they say.

 

[skeeter]

Totally awesome!!!!

 

[Canuck]

WOW, that is way cool!!!

Working with what mother nature already provided as a canvas, you have taken that piece of fine looking cedar way over the top, Robert!!:icon_thum:icon_thum:icon_thum

Fantastic piece!
