Painting Puzzle (John Bartell)

Something that actually looks like it could be displayed. :D

You probably recognize this as the board I used as a stand in a lot of my weekly sculptures.  Since I didn't have any plans to use it in the future, I decided to give it a decent send-off... and cut it into pieces.  How generous of me!

After cutting the board up and rounding the edges, I found it was hard to put it back together simply from the paintings on both sides.  So I didn't - I found I could rearrange it into a number of ways that would look appealing to my eye.  I liked that adaptive aspect of the sculpture.

With that in mind, I probably shouldn't have tried gluing it together afterwards. :(
