What they've all said, here and elsewhere. Your creations make painted artwork look tame (pun half intended).

BNot sure if I made a comment before or not.
Nice job, Les. Because it looks like a Bobcat, not a Lynx and not a Cougar.
We have all three around the village.
If I did intarsia, and a couple of people in the village do that, I'd be buying guitar/luthier off cuts of mahogany and rosewood. Defects galore so cheap.
I rip them into strips and make glue-ups for wood carving tool handles.
White woods in OZ? Look at Lime aka Basswood. I know there's aspen but how hard that is to find, I don't know.
