What Inspired You to Make This?

Having spent 15 years in the digital design field, it was time for me to make something physical. Laser cutting was a natural extension of my experience and skills. I enjoy the process of creating the files on the computer and then seeing them come to life. I am on a mission to create 50 wall art pieces over the next year. I am exhibiting in the Maker Faire to share my knowledge of the process and hopefully inspire and encourage people to try this great hobby! I will share the details of the process of turning 10 pieces of plywood into a multi layered mesmerizing wall art. I am also looking to learn from like minded artist and woodworkers on how we can take this art form to the next level!
