Thanks all for your comments and words of encouragement. I was just asked to make a wood-Burn of a Tiger Moth and a Pitts Special for a couple of guys to put in their hangers. One flies the Tiger Moth and his cousin flies the Pitts. They will be a challenge.

Neat stuff, Merv. The woodburning is really well done!

Some shots we took on a trip to Julian, then on the way home on HWY 79, hope you enjoy. The mission is Santa Ysabel Asentencia, first mass in 1816.

Excellent shots there Merv! I really like the shot of the bird eggs, don't know why. Maybe it's the lighting and colors. And i got your art work today.

So this is the forum for that--wow! Now I've got 69 other pages I've got to go back and look at!

Thanks Aaron and VBF, for some reason I also like the eggs, I think it's my favorite. Glad you got it all in one piece Aaron, not as good as I hoped, but I'm learning the next one will be a lot better

Fantastic shots Merv!

 

[ontos]

Thanks Wayne greatly appreciated. Hey Aaron I was going to send you a PM, it came back and said your PM box was full and wouldn't accept it, dang I wanted to ask you if you wanted the other piece of work, gladly send it

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

HHMMMM, I'll have to empty PMs. And I would gladly except the Corsair sir. You have found another great talent. You could make some decent cash doing that.

Here is my first try at doing Pyrography on paper, when I started I thought I was using the right paper the found out I wasn't, so being the kind of guy who can't just stop and quit, I went ahead and finished it. There are a lot of things to learn when doing this art on paper so I have a long way to go. Still all all it was good practice.

[Wayne Little]

Wow! thats nice, in fact rather well done!

 

[evangilder]

Great stuff, Merv. Aaron, you have joined an exclusive club. We've now both had our photographs turned into wood burning art.
