RAven and Moon

[FrankEV]

This Image has appeared in many Pinterest searches.  Rather simple conversion to a 12” x12” scroll saw pattern.  The cut panel is 5/32 solid core ply Birch (if I remember correctly) that I painted Black with Krylon rattle can All-in-one Flat Black Paint and Primer.  The backer is ¼” BB Ply that I beached for a few days to get a very bright light wood “Moon” color that was then hand painted in the Grey and White areas using Artist Acrylic paints.  Cutting was done with Pegas #1 Spirals and #3 MGT R.  The assembled panel was protected with multiple coats of Deft Clear Gloss Lacquer.

Frame is my typical 1 ¾” wide Poplar stained with Minwax Brazilian Rosewood Stain and protected with multiple coats of Minwax Wipe-on Clear Satin Poly.

That is a magical piece Frank. The touching of the highlights with colour makes it really pop.
