Beautiful!! thanks for idea, I've been looking for big pieces of something better than pine to do something similar, but with the paint even pine looks awesome!
@user-jr7rx9fg6c hard wood definitely gives a different look, it does raise costs considerably though so its good to know your client base. Working on pine though is a great way to practice techniques and styles. Give it a try and I hope your succesful with it. If you look at my Instagram, you will see a whole lot.more examples
I love the wood the sculpting was great. I didn't notice anything wrong with the area you pointed out..lol. I am a painter and wood worker and I always see something no one else notices. I think it looks unfinished just with the 2 x 4 s. Did it sell?
Hi there, thank you and yes this sold, was actually a commission. the 2x4s are merely there to keep it in position for carving and painting. once done, they are generally wall mounted
Love, Love, Love!! I have practiced quite a bit on smaller pieces and feel I am ready to give a larger piece a go. Really appreciate you sharing and providing inspiration
I’ve started carving house number signs free hand with a router. But this project of yours has really got me interested in trying something more artistic in style. Also, we live near the ocean so I really appreciate this piece. Waves can be very inspiring as well as soothing. Great work Jonathan 👍👍
Thanks for the comments, these are alot of fun and very therapeutic to carve! I often use Google earth images for inspiration! Next evolution of this will be laminating the boards together to get a deeper and thicker wave profile.
@@lawrencekeating5571 thank you! Lots more to come! Every piece is a new learning curve and I really try to experiment and create something new each time. Would love to see how you do, send me pics on Facebook or Instagram, that way.we can learn from each other!
Thankyou for your comments, the finish on the sides generally depends on the colour or stain on the face. If i do a natural wood finish, its the same on the sides. If i add colour, like in this video, i do the sides and back in black. Helps show the colour more. Thanks for watching!
The back and sides were eventually painted black. At the time of filming this was what the client had asked for . But I do recomend that the all sides get sealed . If only to prevent moisture from entering. Thanks for watching!
the wood straps on these are generally just while it is being carved and shipped. they are generally removed and each piece hung separately , nice idea though. will keep it in mind

Can’t wait to see it!! One of my favourite RUclips channels.

Great creation. What do you do, if anything, to the side bits?
Thankyou for your comments, the finish on the sides generally depends on the colour or stain on the face. If i do a natural wood finish, its the same on the sides. If i add colour, like in this video, i do the sides and back in black. Helps show the colour more. Thanks for watching!
Very beautifull
Thank you
How much did you get for that?
I generally sell wall art sculptures like this for around £100 per board, depending on their complexity and finish
What is that blue stuff?
I used acrylic paint, royal blue, turquoise, cerulean blue. Just very light coats, gentle sand in between and a shellac finish
the ends of the panels why not treated?
The back and sides were eventually painted black. At the time of filming this was what the client had asked for . But I do recomend that the all sides get sealed . If only to prevent moisture from entering. Thanks for watching!
@@JohnathonWhittaker thanks, good job
I'd put clear perspex on the back to hold it together, rather than the wood. My 2 cents
the wood straps on these are generally just while it is being carved and shipped. they are generally removed and each piece hung separately , nice idea though. will keep it in mind
I might like a lot of white put into it.
This one was a very specific client order, but I like your idea! Thanks for watching!
Shame, its way overdone :( Must know when to stop
these are all commissions, got to do what the client wants!:) thanks for watching
@@JohnathonWhittaker Ok super, then its ok :) Sometimes clients ask for things way over the top, but hey, if its what the customer wants.
