Thomas Haney Phantasmagorical Fine Art Sculpture Gallery
Intarsia Torso Back
Intarsia wood sculpting involves careful piecing of multiple species of wood for one sculpture, often done in two dimensions to resemble a fine wooden jigsaw puzzle. Here a two inch thick board of poplar has been cut to allow the U shaped piece of walnut to be inserted. The fitted and glued work all the same thickness was then hand carved in relief reveling the back view of a standing woman. The walnut drapes her like a piece of fabric, swishes and shaping in both woods add detail and interest. Intarsia Torso Back has a smooth varnish finish and inlaid wire for wall hanging at 10 ½" x 17" x 2".
