Another great piece. Do you plan out the frames or just create?

Dan,
Very nice work, as always of course. You always present such as unique and interesting design with your pieces. As a non-artisan I admire your sense of proportion. balance and design. Your woodworking is pretty good as well.
Thanks for sharing.

Hi Dan;
When are you going to admit you lay awake at night, thinking up these frames?
The first step is admitting you have a problem. LOL
Nice frame and tile!
