  Look at the detail in this piece!
  Notice the "chips" 😆
  Joe will add info.
  He has been carving these for years as mirror frames.
  Love…Jill
  (I believe he soemtimes even adds grafitti on the backs of the bridges!)

  Thanks again Jill!!!!! 🙂

  This is a carving on a pine mirror frame…..the image size is about 8″x10″. All the surfaces are carved with single edge tools: chisels, gouges and knives. There is no sanding. All the colors are oil stains that I make. On these pieces I finish with hand rummed laquers.

  And Jill is right….when the mirror glass is installed, you can see the back of the bridge ….perfect for grafitti. JC Loves JW
