Happy Easter! 43 Days before deadline!!!!!

Well, its 43 days left before the hand-in for our final major project at NUCA! Loads to do, so its a matter of prioritising what works, what doesn't and refining the work that I think has potential!

lasercut ply wood shapes waiting for a good wash, each one has to be cleaned by hand and then dried.

Experiments with the wood/gesso/lace/lasercut shapes, two had a layer of soft gel gloss and various staining with boot polish, my days as a furniture restorer came in handy here!

laser cut disks in various shades of staining

Lasercut/wood/gesso/transfer printed shapes waiting for a wash. After laser cutting the edges of the wood burns and has to be cleaned off by hand.

Drying out on the top of the vintage cooker!

Washed and dried and first coat of soft gel gloss.

Large lasercut circles, wood/gesso/lace/tea stained. These had to be recut by hand as the laser didn't cut all the way through, holes had to be re-punched and sanded by hand. A lot of work!

First layer of soft gel gloss.
