I just have to say, your intarsia pieces are the nicest I have ever seen.  Everything about this is just beautiful.  Your colors, your contouring and your finishing are all top rate.  She is going to love this so much!  Thanks for showing us.  It is a treat to see your work.

That is simply beautiful!
I'm not into intarsia at all but, I know great work when I see it and that is great work!
I'm sure your wife will love and charish that for ever.

Fantastic work!  I really love the colors.  What are the two reds that you are using?  They really do well for both the throat and the flower centers.

Thanks for all the comments!

Woods used were: Aspen, Cedar (Frame), Padauk (Throat), Poplar, Yellowheart and I used little glass beads for the flower centers.

Absolutely beautiful. I too am a huge fan of yours. My favorite bird is the cardinal. Have you done any cardinals?

I have several patterns for Cardinals, but haven't made an Intarsia of one yet. Sorry!
