Bas Relief + Hand Carved Panels by Maine Woodcarver John Bryan
Bas-reliefs are a classic canvas for a woodcarver. Most of the prominent pieces in this collection came to be through a collaborative process with clients to create uncompromised results for their unique situations. Typically lifestyle passions and local environs dominate subjectively.
What would you choose to espouse in a bas-relief that would best reflect you and your legacy?
