I just finished this new piece. Smaller versions were made for friends’ birthdays. The larger version was etched using a laser cutter on this beautiful piece of birch I found.

New piece! This is a baby elephant drawn in the style of a traditional Indian tattoo and the whole piece is burned on wood with a laser cutter. Had a lot of fun making this guy. #instaart #artist #lasercut #lasercutting #babyelephant #art #wood #woodworking #elephant #henna #india #indian #woodburning #burn
