Frank Pellow Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 (edited) As well as some scroll saw work, this piece includes two photos of me canoeing with my grandchildren Isla and Ethan in 2004 at our island in Northern Ontario. The scroll saw part was originally designed by Timothy (worbler) and I will attach his design in a follow-up post within this thread. I eliminated one of the canoes and moved things around and, in the end, the scene looks very much like that one views when looking due east from the vicinity of the beach on Pellow's Island in Lake Pivabiska. I designed the overall layout of the matted and framed piece and built the frame (out of 1/4 sawn white oak).

Frank Pellow Posted March 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2017 I thank everyone for their kind comments. Dan, Pellow's Island is about 1,000 kilometres north-west of my home in Toronto. The island, which is in Lake Pivabiska north of Hearst, Ontario was purchased by my Dad almost 100 years ago. You can find it on Google Maps by keying in Pellow's Island. I was born in Hearst and, in my youth, lived on the islad for about 5 months every year. Now, I only get there for 6 to 8 weeks a year. I'm attaching a couple of photos, one showing the log cabin that I built in 1975 and the other looking north from the island at sunset.
