Pirate Anne Bonnie

Just cut a special piece for this weekend. The pirate Anne Bonny. The design is by Sue Mey (purchased from Wooden Teddy Bear) and is based on a wood cut print from a 1724 book about pirates. It was stack cut from 11x14 1/8th inch Baltic Birch ply. Cut with FD UR #3 blades. It will be matted and framed in a solid oak frame.

Thanks Marg! I am a vendor at the Texas Renaissance Festival which is an 8 weekend event. The theme for this weekend is Pirate. There will be hordes of pirate-want-to-be patrons in full costume visiting the festival. I have been a vendor there for 7 years and while I have well over 100 framed pieces of scroll art on my walls, I have lots of regulars who come by to see what is new each weekend. Since this is a Renaissance festival I have Celtic crosses, Celtic designs, fairies, fantasy animals, wolves, and lots of other themes. And I will have four new pirate designs for this weekend. I will probably sell 20 to 25 pieces of framed art this weekend. When I do the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo in March all of my art will be Western and animal themed.
