Feel free to show off"... that's a dangerous thing to say, yukon
I think most of us have at least one passion we'll talk about until people's vision begins to blur, if unduly encouraged-- and this is one of mine. Here are a few pics. It's all old work, I'm afraid-- I made the conscious decision when my second child was born to spend less time in the shop and more with them (they're ages 2 and 5 currently) A good trade, I think, but I've got enough jobs piling up now that I really need to dust off the saw and get moving again...
I practice a very uncommon scroll saw technique known as Pictorial Segmentaion. Saying that puts me at the point where I need to either stop talking immediately or publish my dissertation, so I'll take pity on you and just post the pics. If anyone's interested in learning more, shoot me an email at
zarling.scrollworks@gmail.com and I'll forward you the powerpoint I use for presentations. All of these pieces, by the way, are of my own design and are based on photos from US government agencies (US Fish and Wildlife Service and Bureau of Land Management specifically) which are in the public domain. Rights to the designs remain mine. (Dull stuff, I know, but I'm pretty careful about this-- I know of some outstanding designers who no longer design due to copyright issues...) Anyway, here ya go:
Oh- and thanks to Gene for telling me how to post these!
