I think this is done, there are a couple areas I may darken a little and obviously it has no finish on it just yet. Not sure if I want go glossy or semi gloss.

 

 

This is the "top". The center motif is one of my favorite zentangle patterns, "phicops in a circle". Have no idea where the name comes from but that's what the original author named it. At any rate, I think it's a great pattern and have used it often.

 

 

 

This is the underside. I may do a little more shading on the motif as the picture makes it look lighter than I'd noticed. This will be gifted and unlikely as it is I don't want to take a chance on the couple seeing it just yet so their names are blacked out.

 

FANTASTIC LOOK.

Wow!  Simply amazing.  Looks like you switched out the wood for basket.  Sure you're not trying to pull a fast one?

Excellent Steve.  That's a lot of work and you did it so well. 

Incredible work,Steve!

Thank you Gentlemen, I really enjoyed doing it. Still, it feels good to have it done and I feel good about how it "turned" out.
