Boy, this isn't how I initially saw this project coming out when I started but it sort of took on a life of it's own. It's more artsy than I wanted but it's going to be installed in the small bathroom at the cabin. I ended up using old, wooden spools for the door knobs and those were going to be halves of pine trees in my mind. I'm already having issues with the leather hinges sagging but like the wife says, the dragging places in the paint will become 'real' distress points. For all you fine woodworkers, you have been warned - LOL!
Edit: Now that it's posted you can't see that the cloud on the stands out from the sky by 1/2". The mountain tops are beveled on both sides so that there is relief from the parts behind it -one mountain range stands out from the other. THe pine trees in the foreground are also cutouts which are glued on. The flash gave tem more highlights than are actually there and the sky' is not as solid as it seems to appear here. It's more llike the mountains but with the grain of the brush strokes going horizontally. I'm likingit less and less.
