Popular Post Kris Martinson Posted March 11, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 11, 2023 I just finished cutting this wood-art piece. This one took about 18 hours to cut and another 2 hours to make the pattern. I made it from a painting by artist, Ted Blaylock.

rdatelle Posted March 14, 2023 Report Share Posted March 14, 2023 Kris, O don't know how you manage to do all those little details in some of your portraits. Beautiful cutting. As Dick said, would look beautiful in a frame. Kris Martinson and heppnerguy 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrollerpete Posted March 14, 2023 Report Share Posted March 14, 2023 That is a triple WOW from me, first to make the pattern and then to go even better is to cut it. This is piece of art. heppnerguy and Kris Martinson 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrankEV Posted March 16, 2023 Report Share Posted March 16, 2023 (edited) Extremely well done, both pattern and cutting. Got a couple of questions. What is the cut panel size and material? Realy curious why you chose to change from a horizontal landscape format to a vertical portrait fromat? I'm guessing to suit the panel size you had or wanted to use. An application of a finish and, as others said, a nice frame will make it outstanding. I've done some pattern creation from an image using Inkscape. Takes me a lot longer than 2 hours for even simple patterns. Don't know how you did such a complcated scene in just two hours. I would really enjoy cutting that pattern but living in Florida my inclinations is to do a little more "tropical" scenes Edited March 16, 2023 by FrankEV Kris Martinson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made it in portrait format because it showed more of what I wanted in the scene and because of the wood grain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
