Topic: "Culture Cultivation" Bitcoin Art Piece (Read 1094 times)

Purpleheart, Yellowheart, & Bloodwood are some of the hardest woods to work with, but they are also some of the most beautifully colored woods on the planet so its worth the challenge.

The parallel lines are done with a straight edge. Marked in pencil then carved very slowly.

@OP: Beautiful work
How do you make those parallel lines that is on the surface on the entire piece, it has a stunning effect?

Edit:

It was 6 years ago this month that Satoshi Nakomoto planted a seed, the first block of a technology that would grow to change the way that millions think about banking and commerce. "Culture Cultivation" is an artistic representation of how one mans seed, "bitcoin" as we know it, has grown over the past 6 years into something that has forever changed the world and will continue to grow like a well tended fertile garden.

"Culture Cultivation" is carved from the highest grade Purpleheart wood a person can ever get their hands on. This high grade Purpleheart only comes from the top 3 or 4 feet of trees that exceed 160 foot tall and contains the highest resin concentration of Purpleheart wood which leads it to turning the deepest "crown royal" purple color you will ever find.

When freshly cut the heartwood of Purpleheart is a  dull grayish/purplish brown. Upon exposure the wood becomes a deeper eggplant purple. With further age and exposure to UV light, the wood becomes a dark brown with a hint of purple. The high grade Purpleheart that this piece is made of has a super high resin content that leaves it more purple than others after aging. This piece was freshly cut and worked by hand so it still has 5-10 years to fully age to its darkest color but will start to show its deep royal purples within the next week or two.

To acquire this piece please PM me or post in this thread. As always, its first come first serve and the first one to message gets the piece.
