Marquetry "The Singing Butler "
This is the marquetry version of Jack Vettriano's famous painting "the singing butler". Size: 9x11" for the marquetry, 16x19" for the frame. material: more than a dozen types of wood veneers. Finish: mineral oil + varnish. It took me the whole winter to finish this piece.
compare the original painting and my work

A very different subject for marquetry to the usual flowers, birds and so on.

Well done zhzzyt! Nice to see a quality piece like that.
Cheers, Ian"The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot.. it can't be done.
If you deal with the lowest bidder it is well to add something for the risk you run.
And if you do that, you will have enough to pay for something better"

Very nice piece!
How did you convert the original image into segments suitable for marquetry? Did you use software, some kind of technique or just raw talent?Cheers, Bob the labrat
