The Process
​
When I'm working on a project various types of wood are used for their color or interesting grain patterns. I prefer NOT to use stains on my Intarsia, opting to use the true natural color of the wood to achieve the look I'm going for, then a clear finish is applied to each project to make those colors pop.
