Ok thinking of doing this Build here, is going to take some time. This is getting built for a client of mine, client bought this print with the idea of what she is looking for, but wants my interpretation on this print so I took it apart an it gave me some ideas. But I will be making a new print in what I want to do. The original print is from Judy Gale Roberts. I like the print but the build is not enough to bring it to life an dimension that I want, I posted pictures below of the print with my notes an her Judy's picture of her build.

So what you guys an gals think if I do it here besides my School Page

This class is going to take a couple months so please bear with me

This class will be on my School page, just click the link below

I think it's a good idea.

The main goal for this new print is to truly to bring it to life is to do the refection better, I plan on resawing my back grounds pieces to achieve this I hope. an might add some blue dye for the water but just a hint of blue tho
Below is pictures of refection's an dimension to help me with this project. Pictures I got off of Bing :laughing: There just for examples !!!!!!!

It would be AWESOME if you could post a build thread on this. You do inspiring work, Roy, and we all would benefit from it. I realize that it would take ALOT of work on your part, but please know that it would be much appreciated.

I truly look forward to seeing this come together!

I think you need to look at some bookmatched veneer for that reflection idea.

Today planning out some wood for this project, these woods I'm considering for the base background will not be using all of it.
I only budged $200.00 for this project so going to the scrap an cutoff pile to keep cost down :blink:
Here is some of my choses so far, I want to get started on this tomorrow
