Return to Venice

[munzieb]

I recently did a Venice scene cutting and happened to be scrolling through Pinterest and found another scene I really liked and had more detailed. I especially like the Rialto Bridge in the back ground. Lots of very thin lines in this pattern and did some mods on the fly so things didn't break. I also did my paint fill in technique on some of the dark spaces to match the background.

Great work! I also like it. I remember a trip to Venice many moons ago. I passed a bridge that I thought was interesting and took a picture. It turned out to be the Bridge of Sighs.

Plaque is 16.5 x 12. I am limited since I only have a EX16. I had to change direction on the outer edge cuts. Sequencing the cuts was important because of all the small and thin pieces. I did all the small stuff first and and worked from the center out. I did the gondola last along with the rail on the roof in the center.. Definitely blue taped pieces in place because things got wobbly and fragile and it was easier to sand the back with them in place.

Thanks Kevin. I don't do volume work but focus on involved projects that are a challenge. Maybe when this covid thing is done, we'll get there. 2 shots done 2 weeks in.

  Absolutely superb, as is your usual. This is indeed an excellent pattern and you have honored you pattern maker with this project. It is an eye catcher, for sure. 

   Hope to be chatting with you again before too long.
