I’ve already posted this in my blog but I just had to post it again because my daughter-in-law says that she LOVES it :)

Yup.. I’ll be making another one of these. Perhaps with my grand-daughter’s silhouette if I can find a picture that provides me with the right details.

Neat! Multiple shadows, I suppose in photography you’d call this a quadruple exposure.

Very nice indeed. You just gave me a great idea to do one each year for my future newborn! Thanks for sharing!

thanks Dick, Branden.

Branden – that would be a great idea, stacking the different profiles next to each other, keeping the proportions true. Hmmm ;)

Debbie, I love that! – What a clever idea! (which – I will be stealing!). Though I couldn’t do a “self protrait” – With my snoz, everyone would think it was some sort of sideways bell curve ;)

I came across this in shuffle and wondered if you were still using your scroll saw much and also how the Maloof chair was coming. : ^ )

haven’t done much with wood, at all, lately—too much outdoors stuff to do as well as I’ve been busy with clients.

oh the chair—well that is delayed because of the offer for free directions for the rocking chair!!
So I figure 2009 – rocking chair and when that is done, 2012, the Maloof hahaa

glad you like it. I haven’t hung it up anywhere. it’s sitting on a little table with my other “self portrait”... well the second one was trial piece of combining a self-portrait with a soaring spirit image. It worked, except that it just looks like I have a big moustache lol

the pix is in Picasa and so the linking never works but I’ll try it anyway.
