Horse marquetry
Furnished content. (from Lumberjocks.com)
I started this picture once and got so frustrated I gave up for a while. I sent a picture of it such as it was to my sister (it's her horse) and she said “I love it. Don't get rid of it!” So I kept it around and finally came back to it. Here's what I ended up with. I don't hate it anymore. The frame is from some walnut I've had sitting around foryears. The person I bought it from said it was from a barn in Pennsylvania from around the turn of the century (not the current one). Beautiful wood. Hard to imagine using it on a barn. Anyway it seemed like a fitting wood to use for a horse picture. The second picture is another one I did of her horse after I gave up on the other picture. It was much easier to do a wide shot and not have to worry about the face details. Kind of a cop out I know. The background was a piece of veneer that I was saving for just the right picture.George
