 The Magician's Daughter Soft pastel on rag board Presented in Celtic cross gold leaf frame with incised ornament ©2015 Merglenn Studios |
| The finished framework, which sold quickly during our first show of the 2015 spring tour. AB's painting seemed a perfect fit for a Celtic-themed frame. The frame is partly constructed using repurposed oak flooring from a Lutheran church parsonage in Worland, Wyoming. It is finished with gold leaf which I applied directly on the oak with minimal surface preparation to the wood in order to show the grain. The four oak pieces used for the cross were incised using a laser engraver. |
