Loons

This frame was made from a weathered 2 x 4 piece of driftwood I found.  The wood was painted black and then I painted my interpretation of the plummage on a common loon, the top being the neck area.  The photos are all common loons taken on various lakes on the Whitefish chain of lakes near Crosslake, Minn.  The photos appear washed out because I took this photo outside on a bright sunny day.  

 Dimensions are approximate.

The frame is about 18 by 20 inches, the photos are about 4 by 5 inches.

Mangrove Branch

This frame was made from a dead mangrove branch found near Port Canaveral, Fl.  The branch was cut in half to retain the irregular shape and the barnacles.  The wood & barnacles were coated with multiple coats of a clear acrylic resin to strengthen the wood and stabilize the barnacles.  The photo was taken at the locks of Port Canaveral, Fl.  The bird is a snowy egret.
