Melissa this is awesome! How and what do you use for paint to get that kind of finish? Also, did you start the rose from 3" sign foam? So awesome! Your my idol!

OK, I'm impressed!! Just wondering Melissa, how long would it take to carve
a rose to that kind of perfection? Looks to me like the flower (the part you hand carved) is about 18" tall and made of sign foam?? How big is the whole sign?
Hats off to you for an awesome job!!!!!

Thank you Rik! You have the size of the flower about right on. It took me about 3-4 hours with some hand sanding for that project. The sign was 5ft by 3ft overall.

You know Melissa, you make the rest of us look at amateurs
great job

I don't think so really! I learn so much here that it's not even funny.

I too was wondering what the material was as I couldn't see any grain if it was some kind of wood (basswood maybe), but it looked like there were chips flying.

Great work as always!

Hi Lindsay! I've seen your work and it is looking pretty awesome I must say. The
Dentist job? That was really nice all around.

The rose here was just 1.5" thick foam. Seems a little too thick in hind sight. For paint it is usually all Sherwin Williams latex. Thanks again and see you around. I'm happy to see you here and that you are making awesome signs already.
