    Love the value changes created on this one! Do the strings alone create the light and dark values alone or is the board painted or stained below the created “triangle” shapes? I’d love to see it in it’s actual size!

      I covered the wood with a shellack. At the center point a put a nails and tied a string to it to cast shadows radiating from the center of the piece like the sun and surrounding planets. I also mixed paint with the shellack to create the shadows.
      Thanks for the comments and feed back Paul!
