Laser-etched Wood Panels by Frank Chimero
July 1, 2009 - By Bobby Solomon - Category: Art & Design & Illustration
It’s really pretty stupid that I haven’t posted about Frank Chimero before. I’ve seen and loved his work for about a year now, I follow him on the Twitters, there’s really no good reason. But I was browsing his Flickr yesterday and I came across his new laser-etched wood panels he’s in the process of making and I thought it went well with the things I’ve been posting today…. oh yeah, and they’re freaking beautiful. I’m not sure what size these will be or when they’re going to be released, but I’m sure I’ll re-post about them when they’re available.
My favorites are the log (the irony!) and the record with the hands, though that face one looks pretty sweet as well. Keep up the excellent work Mr. Chimero.

If you've got something to say, keep it positive.I think the last one is actually a pottery wheel.
thank you for posting Frank’s work.
He’s a champion!
Wonder if they will be at available for next weekend’s Renegade Craft Fair LA.
The last one is intended to be a record, but I guess it could also be a pottery wheel. It’s open for interpretation?
These will be available at next weekend’s Renegade Craft Fair in LA, and then the next fair the following weekend in San Francisco.
Once I’m done with all the travel I have slated in July, they’ll be added to my web shop in August.
Thanks for the interest, everyone, and thanks for blogging about my little project.
Be careful with that wood one now eeeeek

Wow those are really cool. Not much info on how he did it though… I’m also curious about what type of wood he used.
