Snow Bird ScrollWork

I love it. So simple, but yet so exquisite. Perfect use for the figured cedar—it certainly does look like the winter sky.

It is absolutely beautiful! I think you really accomplished what you wanted to with it. The cedar looks amazing and the simplicity of the silhouette accents it perfectly. This is really a work of art. Just wonderful!

That’s really beautiful! The wood looks like a clouded sunset.

Might I suggest a black shadow box, with a 3/8” walnut frame. The black will make the piece stand out. When I’ve done the shadow box, I glue Velcro on the back of the art and frame and just stick it on center. Just a thought.

Thanks all for your comments!

Jack, I think I might just try a dark frame around this piece – maybe even ebonized walnut. Thanks!
