Popular Post FrankEV Posted December 7, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 7, 2021 (edited) After the first cutting, an 11x14 H. Botas Pattern called “Horse” a few weeks ago, I decided to find and convert a few other free images into horse scroll saw patterns. This group of Horse portraits is the result. All cuttings are done in 5/32” solid core Maple, Birch or Walnut ply. Backers are 1/4 BB ply either left natural or stained with Minwax Dark Walnut as appropriate. I used a few different Pegas blades, both MGT R and Spriral, of various sizes from #2/0 up to #3 to cut these patterns. All panels were finished with multiple coats of Deft Clear Gloss Spray Lacquer. All panels set loose in 1 3/4” wide distressed Poplar Frames finished with Minwax Early American Poly/Stain. Horse – Botas – 11”x14” Cut panel Horse Stallion – 10”x10” Cut Panel mounted on a 12” x 12” Backer. Horse Running – 11”x14” Cut Panel Horse Proud – 12”x15” Cut Panel Horse Jumping – 11”x14” Cut Panel Horse Palls – 15”x12” Cut Panel Horses 3 – 14”x11” Cut Panel Comments and critiques are always welcomed.

Dak0ta52 Posted December 8, 2021 Report Share Posted December 8, 2021 Great work, Frank. But I've learned to expect nothing less from you. These horse portraits would go over big in my rural, horse-country area. The only problem with the horse-country area I live in is they are poor horsemen. (I should say "broke" horsemen because they treat their horses better than their selves, not that they treat their horses badly.)

preprius Posted December 8, 2021 Report Share Posted December 8, 2021 Frank, Your choice and creation of art shows super crisp lines and smoothe and eligant curves. The "Horse palls" show how you did an invert to capture different horse colors. Brilliantly done. The jaw line of the horse on left shows nice curved lines. The plants add that feel of a wall of flowers without "grass" blades that tend to add more detail that is needed. Elegant plant leaves gave me a feel of flowers that are not blooming. Now the left horse's neck just stops. I kinda feel that a couple of elegant curves can be added to show the horse has a body. The curves could go all the way to the frame. It will change the composition and framing of the content. But for me I would likevto complete the camera frame. FrankEV 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
