This particular barrel is one of a pair I carved for a local company in the Gastown area of Vancouver. The oak barrel tops are generally about 3/4 to 5/8 inches thick so I use carving techniques and paint shading to amplify the depth.The letters are carved in so I can allow the main surface to reveal a nice stain showing off the beauty of the oak.
Cheers,
Peter
