Creative and colorful composite work, KK! A beauty! #6198973Kathleen K. Parker July 19, 2008
Thanks Shirley and Terry. Actually this is not a composite.....yeah, the wood on which this heart was engraved was beaten up, so I did not have to add a thing, just work with the color and contrast.Vladan D. Djordjevic July 22, 2008
