 This assemblage is a 3D relief carved image that is more sculptural than most of my artwork. The image is taken from a 1917 photo of my father in an Overland car. The license plate indicates this was an Illinois 1917 plate, however the Overland could be 1917 or possibly earlier model. In the assemblage I’ve included a larger scale image of the license plate and also a larger image of the Overland logo from the car radiator. The image is made to hang on the wall with a hanging notch carved in back.

The Overland was the highest selling car during this period, second only to Ford. Overland was ultimately unsuccessful as an automaker, partly because it attempted to make too many models and luxury features compared to Ford and other automakers that made more basic models that were more affordable.

If you have a classic model car such as this that you would like a carved relief created, please contact me about a possible commission.

Bluebird 3-D Carved rondo with Cherry Blossoms

                            Bluebird 3D Relief carved painting                                        Bluebird  6" x 6" on Aspen wood 
THIS PAINTING IS SOLD 

This artwork is a continuation of the 3-D relief images created much like a 3-D printer but carving the relief from wood. In many of these works I am then painting them in the traditional style using acrylic medium. In this work the collector requested a Bluebird symbol, so this was the motivation for this particular work. See the views of this carved and painted image below.

Anyone can suggest an idea or subject to be carved and we can proceed from there to see if it is something that can be created using this new approach.

Some examples below show a variety of ideas and concepts that can be created with this approach. If you have some thoughts about how you might like to use this method, please contact me with suggestions or commission ideas that could be developed. Please email me here:  wolberinchina@hotmail.com

Ruby Throated Hummingbird Carved Painting

                Ruby Throated Hummingbird Relief carved and painted                                                 

                6”x 6”  original acrylic on carved Aspen board $285 with free shipping in US and Canada

THIS PAINTING IS SOLD

My most recent project has been to bring Art and Technology together by using a CNC machine to carve relief images of my paintings and photos from wood then finish the results in a variety of ways. On the next few postings I will show some examples of my initial experiments.

It is possible for me to use a painting or photo to translate into a relief or 3D image so that the image can be carved in wood.  I’m still experimenting with many ideas so if you have some thoughts about things you might like to see me try, please email me. However not all photos work well for this kind of process. I’ve found that using Aspen wood gives a clear image so that the wood grain doesn’t interfere with the carved image. 

The image for this post is of a ruby throated hummingbird that I’ve used a software called “Blender” to create a relief image to carve then paint the relief image for the special 3D effect you see here.

THIS PAINTING IS SOLD 

This is another of the alphabet ABC paintings that I began some time ago. I’ve been on the lookout for a cat image and finally found a small cat sculpture I like. It’s a small antique pewter image of a cat stretching that fit into the idea I wanted to paint. There are two sets of Embossing Company blocks here and the lion is from a third set of even older blocks.

There is something about flight that is magical, especially when we observe it in nature. Seeing this bird stretch wings to take flight was a mystical moment that I wanted to capture. It’s not as easy as you might think to catch that instant just before taking flight.
