Clint E
« on: August 20, 2012, 10:35:31 am »
A recent attempt by this old man.  Comments and suggestions for improving are welcome.

Cut out of Baltic Birch ply with a stained background.  The frame, my first, is natural walnut.

Have a fine day.

Very nice cutting Al! I personally like a wood backing board and do most of my portraits that way!

That looks so good I may also try the 'natural wood' backer too!

Nice job on the frame also!

Great cutting Al!  Excellent job on the frame too!  The joints look nice and tight (way better than I can do! ::))
