Instruction

Step:

First cut all your pieces. I used three 12x18 pieces of wood and one 12x12 walnut wood. I prefer my settings at 55% and 15mm/s with 2 passes but this setting might not be for everyone. I cut 2 at a time one each piece of wood and I was using x,y,w,h settings to make sure each piece was the same size every time. The W and H for 2 was w16.671 and h11.034 or for a single frame cut w8.156 and h11.034.

Step:

After every piece was cut, I painted each frame. I chose this photo specifically because it was my fathers-in-law photo of Utah, so it was my reference photo while painting. Paint colors used were Burnt Umber (brown), Phthalocyanine (green), Violet Dioxazine (purple), Ultramarine (blue), Cadmium (yellow), and Titanium (white).

Step:

After cutting and painting everything and letting it all dry it is finally time to glue. Because my wood had a bend in it I had to use about 8 clamps. I used all purpose glue. I put glue on each layer and stacked them, and while it was still wet lined them up and clamped them into place and let them dry for a few hours. after its dry its all done and should look something like this.
