This is a 4 hr art walk indoors. I'm going to test these out to see if they will sell.
If so, I will, make some more for the spring shows coming up.
I created them out of MDF, painted them with Stone paint, for texture and then
used different colors over the stone paint. The Fleur de lis are also MDF with 2 coats of clear sealer
then gold metallic paint. The MDF gives the Fleur de lises a velvet look.
I call them 2 step and 3 steps crosses.
2 of the crosses are in Cypress and 1 piece carve, I love the natural wood look.

Nice.

You may want to try the attached. I sold 6 of them last month at $35 each.

Christ is cedar with a dark walnut stain, the cross is ash, unstained, Christ attached w/spray adhesive, and 4 coats of satin poly.

Used 5/8" cedar from HomeDepot, had my settings at 3/4" deep -that's why He's cut through in some spots.

FYI, the Last Supper (or the preferred "Last 'Pre' Supper") on oak - two @ $50 each. Unstained, 4 coats of satin poly, framed.

Thanks for the advice Jerry I will keep that in mind.
I have the Christ face already, but not the other.
