livingart Posted November 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 there is an art in everything mincie:wink: the gum carving took awhile as the bur was very hard timber it is about 2 1/2 feet long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 Well done on carving a gum burr, those things are insanely hard to work with. Watch out for it splitting as it gets older, but then that can look cool too. I enjoy woodturning, carving, building with wood and painting. I dont have any photos cos I'm at uni now. All I have here is this little box I made from macrocarpa: my sister is a professional artist This is her website: http://www.amiria.co.nz/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucid Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 Mystic does most of the 'arty' stuff. Designing Tattoos, Drawing, Painting, Building, Designing, Aquascaping, Painting Art on Clothes, Designing Guitar Pictures, Making Leather stuff like Bracelets, Chokers, etc .... Heres some very old Drawings I found of hers: Also some of the Guitars she designed: I think she is Art in herself: Edit: Ops! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinytawnykitten Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 I have done a few mosaics, last summer I mosaiced the post which holds our dovecote and at the moment I am partway through covering a whole concrete wall in our garden. Here's the dovecote... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
