Very nice carving and a wonderful piece artwork too. Did you cut it out with a scroll saw first and then carve the details?

Love the celtic work. The carving detail is exquisite. A beautiful design.

Thanks everyone for the comments. This was all hand carved using tradition First Nations carving knives. The panel was made from red cedar laminated with a horizontal mid layer sandwiched between two vertical sections. I carved through the first section to expose the horizontal grain. Took forever but created a dramatic effect.

Very neat and clean work, especially on such a complicated design. You must have many hours in it.
