Wood-Cuts by Melody Smith

Hey everyone! I will be at the Tempe Marketplace Art's & Crafts Festival 
this weekend, Feb. 9 & 10 from 10-5pm. (Near CA Pizza Kitchen)
I have some great Valentine's gifts! Show prices listed below!

Wood cuts are made by sawing out my designs with a band saw, filing,
and drawing the images onto the wood to be painted with acrylics.
Some pieces have nailed on tooling foil or copper foil with
hand carved designs. Wood blocks are attached to the back of the cut-out to allow them to stick-out from the wall giving a 3-D effect!

I will also have original acrylic paintings, giclees, and greeting cards!
Hope to see you there!
