Face in Nature
« on: September 17, 2011, 03:23:46 pm »
It's been a long time since I did a portrait. This is from Rick McCulley and I believe it's called Face in Nature. Had fun cutting it. Picked up a frame from Goodwill for $2. Frame is a little rough, but overall I like it.

Comments welcome and critiques appreciated.

Thanks.

I'm a big fan of the artist, Bev Doolittle, and this is the kind of thing she paints.
I must get that and cut it!

Great Project! I really like it!

Hey Gray Beard, I thought the same thing about Bev Doolittle. Wouldn't her work be cool as intarsia?

I searched around on the internet for the pattern, but didn't have any luck. i did find out that there are 4 horses in it. I can find 3 but the 4th one is kinda hard to see. Some say it's in the upper left and some say it's on the right side. See if you can find them.

I can't find a link to the pattern but here is a thread on one of the other sites that may help. You should be able to PM him. He sounds very helpful.
