Martin Ramirez FDC swap

I have been doing art, but not the Documented Life Project.  I've been working on a carving based off a Martin Ramirez drawing for a swap sponsored by the Carving Consortium.  Of course I picked an incredibly intricate design and the carving has taken forever.  I've just finished enough to do a test print.  There's still some cleaning up to do, but I'm liking it.

 Here's a close up.
Here's more info on Martin Ramirez.  Pretty interesting story.

  1. You are such an amazing carver. I am continually amazed at the detail you achieve. Thanks for the link to Ramirez. It made me think of my father who was also diagnosed with schizophrenia.
