Honoring The Veterans

Here is a project that I worked on for Home Depot. The picture you see here is the roughed out design I had come up with. They have associates that work for them that had served in our military. They wanted to recognize them with a nice visual sign that there names could be gathered around. The first image is the design I came up.

Here is the finished piece. There are some slight differences. I used a grid system to help me enlarge it from a normal sheet of paper to the size you see here. It is 44" x 35" x 3/4". I would have made it bigger if the spot they had in the store was larger. As well as this was the biggest size I could fit in my car.

It took me almost four days to design, transfer design, cut and prep the surface and to paint it all up. I wanted to have a nice shape for this piece and felt it would have more of an impact if it was something other than painted on a square board. I even went as far as rounding off the sides and making sure to seal it so it would last a long time.
