I made this Intarsia for my Cousin. He's had this boat for a few years.   Click picture to enlarge

I always admire your work. Everything always looks so perfect, even the smallest thing and the color scheme.
 Simply great. Thank you for sharing.

This one made my jaw drop. I must ask, how did you achieve the amazing colors in the water and skyline? Is that all one piece of an exotic wood variety that I am unaware of, or is it the best-applied wash/tint that I have seen in quite a while? You sir, do amazing work!

Nicole, It's Pine wood with a fungus called "Blue Pine".  That's the way it turns out after finish is applied. I use it for water and Skies in most of my Intarsias.
