Architectural Carving- Mahogany Door with Hibiscus and Hummingbirds

This door was commissioned for an interior closet. 24" wide by 80" tall.  It was made with 3 pieces of Cuban Mahogany.  This is the kind of mahogany that is native to Puerto Rico, it is very heavy and dense.  The center strip is 15" wide and the two side panels are 4.5" wide each. The thickness is 1".
After the initial construction and sanding of the door, the first step is to lay out the design in an aesthetic way.
The goal is to balance the positive and negative space.

 The second step is to prepare the door for carving by piercing the design to allow for ventalation in the tropical environment of the mountains in Puerto Rico.

This customer also commissioned this panel for her kitchen, also carved in 1 inch thick Cuban mahogany.

The second ocean scene column is finished!!  This completes  the series of eight columns making this amazing home truly a unique environment!   A grouping of 3 squid swim across the top in the photo above, and below is the family of Queen Angel fish with 2 adults and one juvenile.

 The ocean floor is decorated with seaweed, a seahorse, star fish, and a sea urchin.

 On the top of this final column is just the tail end of a happy dolphin leaping for joy! It truly has been an amazing project! Gracias a Dios!
