Tears of Heimdallr - White Oak with Teardrops cut and airbrushed. Finished with EM6000 Clear Gloss Waterborne Lacquer.

Heimdallr is the Norse god who lives where the rainbow bridge, Bifrost, meets heaven and stands watch for the coming of Ragnarok.

Eric,
That's a different approach with the cut-outs. I like the weight/thickness. The cutouts have me thinking of ways to use them. The shape to my eye needs to have more of an outward curve. Overall it has a whimsical look and is pleasing.

Thanks, this was a bit of a rescue piece. I had almost abandoned it last year and tossed it in the corner of my basement until I figured out how to save it. There had been a knot where one of the tears were cut. The knot cracked while drying and it took me a year to decide how to save it.

Neat idea on removing the cracked knot Eric. Now to see if I can remember that one!
