Framing Battlefield Texas

Speaking of iPhone, I used mine to snap a few process photos of a frame I built over the past couple of weekends. I already had the wood cut, assembled, and sanded before I thought about capturing any pictures, so these are mostly the complete frame laying around to dry. Most of my time is spent assembling pixels on a screen, so it’s nice to build something more tactile every now and then.

The framed poster is a print of artist Christopher Alan Smith’s “Battlefield Texas: Republic of Texas Map” (buy your own here).

Materials:
Wood: Reclaimed longleaf pine
Stain: Early American

About

Like a teenage boy, this blog lacks any real focus. Consider it a dumping ground for my brain; little snippets of things I'd like to remember, but probably won't. I like to say that I'm a designer by day and a designer by night, too. That'd be a joke if it was funny. I also like country music, western novels, and wrestling bears. I've got the beard to prove it.
