Santa House Plaque

[FrankEV]

This is a recent Steve Good pattern that I increased in size and cut from 12” x 12” panels. Slightly modified to eliminate the hanging holes and added a forth backer layer to allow the words to be painted.  The piece is three layers of 1/8” BB Ply and a 1/4” BB Ply backer for a total 5/8” thick plaque.   Painting was done with a combination of Rattle can spray paints and Artist Acrylic paints.  The plaque perimeter was cut after painting and the panels were assembled.  The plaque was protected with multiple coats of Clear Gloss Spray Polyurethane, as this will hang outside on my house for the month of December.

I was sloppy in cleaning and sanding as some fuzzies can be seen in the photo that are not so apparent in person viewing unless you get up very close.   It is hard to clean off fuzzies after the panels were painted.    

 

Yes, I tried to make the full moon look real in a stary sky.

Hope you enjoy.  As always comments and critiques are welcomed.
