Intarsia - by Larry Willis by Larry Willis Intarsia is the art of creating images and pictures from inlays made of wood, marble, or other materials. Larry's work concentrates on the use of wood inlays with other materials used to supplement the designs. A variety of light and dark natural colored wood is used to create the desired effect Patterns are traced onto wood blanks and then the pieces are cutout with a band saw or scroll saw.
Pieces are then fit together, sanded to shape and glued to an underlining support structure.
The work is then finished with a protective clear coat. Visit Larry's guitar site to see some of these beautiful instruments.
