I wanted shiny horns but a matte cow, so have decided to coat my painted horns in a light layer of UV resin. Hopefully it works out! 🤞🤞

The process actually starts with drawing the pattern in illustrator but I forgot to record that part 😂 Join me making some happy summer geese, the pattern is cut from Baltic birch on the xtoolp3, shaped with the marathon rotary tool, and painted with acrylics. I love making these!

Craft show prep doesn’t stop for rain ☔️

Today’s setup involved plastic sheeting, the attic, and being very thankful my airbrush has a light 😂 Not glamorous, but the pieces are getting finished.

One of the most exciting parts of intarsia is bringing a flat cutout to life through shaping! This Highland cow was cut from Baltic birch with the xTool P3 and shaped with the Marathon rotary tool. Next step: priming, and finally adding color.
