Stick To Your Guns Barrel Head
December 31, 2014
I’ve been working on a series of lettering on barrel heads for an upcoming show and here is my 4th in that series. I documented a bit more of the progress for this one. These all start as a sketch to make sure the layout is right and will fit perfectly in a circle, then I start the long process of transferring that sketch onto the actual barrel head. I originally wanted to use paint for all of these but I ended up going with white colored pencil. It lets all of the wood texture show through more, and I actually like the inconsistencies of light and dark based on the wood under the pencil.
