A few weeks ago, I showed you my new WIP relief carving. I've had a chance to work on it a couple of time since I first posted and even though I still have a long way to go, it's coming along pretty nicely.
This is what it looked like at the end of last month:
And now after some more carving:
As you see, I change my mind a lot as I carve, lol - the barn is now open in front and looks a lot different. :) 
I've been working to deepen the background and I like the way shadows begin to emerge.
I have a lot more carving to do and who knows what it will look like when I'm done...
And when is a piece actually done? Isn't there always something else you wish you had added?
I thought about carving the frame of this piece but I think it might make it too busy. I might do a mosaic frame with black 1 inch glass and black grout - lol, not sure yet - I guess I'll figure that out when I get to it. :)
I'll keep you posted with pics as I go! Thanks for dropping by and visiting us in Hick Town! :)

Love dropping by to see the work in progress! Beautiful piece. You are very talented!
ReplyDeleteRhonda, thanks so much! I love to carve but I always worry about finishing the piece. If I could paint like you do, it wouldn't be a problem - but I can't. :) Love your new paintings!
ReplyDeleteLove the changes in your WIP. I will check backin the future to see how you are progessing
