Default Ian Norbury's Race Horse-

Ian Norbury's Race Horse-
I just finished an Intarsia rendition of Ian Norbury' Racing Horse- an Arabian. I ordered plans from Mr. Norbury for horses and received plans for 3 different horses.

I have include a photo of the Horse done by Ian Norbury.
I am considering putting my finished piece on a plaque but I am not sure if the plaque will enhance it or what to wood to use.

I used Mahogany, Black Walnut and Wenge (eye). In all there are 7 pieces. I used carving techniques extensively to avoid having to cut more pieces and eliminate the heart ache of trying to get all the pieces to fit together.
