Some of the frames I have built with People in them...
sadly to many seem to be based on memorials.

Original Pencil Art By: Mr. Michael Reagan
Custom Portraits of Fallen Soldiers Drawn Free of Charge

Title: Jeremiah Pulaski
Created: 2013

frame(30) window size 18x24 is Tropical Walnut with a natural danish oil finish and a satin lacquer topcoat.

The Drawing was perfect and is a composite of some photos we have. Jeremiah's eye's seem to follow you when looking at this. With the drawing the way it was and since this was our son I had to make the frame perfect as well, it came out nice and I think fits the drawing well.

Kim, Thank you for asking Mr. Reagan to do this for us.

Mr. Reagan Thank you seems so inadequate, the drawing is outstanding and is our son in art, you are truly a gifted artist and for what you are doing for the families of the fallen an amazing man, again Thank you.

The frame(54) window size 18x24 is Tropical Walnut outer with a Curly Maple inner. Sealed and finished w/ 4 coats of semi-gloss lacquer w/the final coat being Gloss...
the Walnut sheen was knocked down while the maple was polished to give it a glass like appearance and feel.

Misc: image 9 0f 10 thumb

A Veteran friend of ours made his first trip to the Vietnam Memorial in Washington DC
It was the 25th anniversary run for The Wall, he carried with him several photos of those that had lost their battles with PTSD one of them was our son.
Thank You Bob... this is but a simple Thank You for all that you have done for us.

frame(46) window size 20x16 is Tropical Walnut with a tung oil mix finish.
The photo was taken by a friend of his and is Bob's reflection in the wall. I mounted it to glass behind frosted glass all on top of a Flag with Bob's favorite animal, wolves.
The photo can not show the depth or the 3d appearance of it, it really is quite cool to look at.

Pine frame(#7) window size 11x14 w/ Maple/Walnut inlay and a LinSeed Oil finish, I wanted the yellowing effect of the oil for this particular frame it worked well with this wood. The picture does not do the wood justice it was nicely colored with greys and dark to light browns. I offered to redo this frame because of the errors in it but the wood was so nice and the errors to them so minor they elected to overlook my screw-ups and keep it.
