Framing the frames

Variation on framing. Take a simple idea and make complicated. All the connections are mortise and tenon. Art is from Todd Marsee. 
Making the small spacer blocks was interesting. Try hand cutting tenons without much success. Ended up using sliding sled with stop block. 
Nice looking trio!

Almost a kind of shadow box.

That many small tenons alone is grueling enough, can't imagine even trying to hand cut unless I was really bored!
nice look.

working with my hands is a joy,it gives me a sense of fulfillment,somthing so many seek and so few find.-SAM MALOOF.

Thanks for compliments.  
Neat design!  Would be interested in seeing the back as well to see how the art is held on place.  
I like the design!
