Dan, Nice work as always. I believe I like the Welcome one the best, the rays in the oak look like a sun burst on the top piece.

Dan, all three are works of art. If I had to choose only one, I would pick the beetle. I know it is not Arts & Crafts style, but some nice fiddle back ambrosia maple would be really cool with the beetle tile. Great job and thanks for sharing.

Where I come from, we squash cockroaches… not frame them! (okay, I’m kidding)

I really like the design of the second frame, but the wood on the welcome sign is great.

They are all good Dan. I might give a slight preference for the welcome sign.

Charlie left out the part about where he his from the cockroaches are the same physical dimension as your scarab.

I like the second tile best, and the portrait and landscape versions of the frames in 2 and 3. Guess that means I like them all.

On a sidenote, my high school jewelry teacher had a strict admonition about the use of letters and words in artwork. I think number three knocks that sad notion into a cocked hat.

Oh what walls I would have if I had every Dan Walters piece I ever loved.

Great work as always. If I had to pick a favorite, I’d take the forest scene. Reminds me of many hikes and the mysteries of the forest. But that was a hard decision. The welcome, is great too, and the scarab, is cool. Don’t make me decide!

Beautiful Dan, I could’nt choose a favorite, they are all beautiful works of art. I am just gratified to have known a true artist in my lifetime. I am in awe. I’m not worthy!!!.
