He had been commissioned to carve a series of benches for Rosemoor Nature Reserve at Walwyns Castle, Haverfordwest, Pembrokeshire. I was intrigued as to how Robert would use the image and have been waiting in anticipation for a glimpse of the finished piece. It has been well worth the wait..

Wonderful, it could have been made for it.
Hasn't it transferred perfectly. How has it been done - is it carved out then coloured, or burned in, or just printed on??
Hi Keith
Yes I was pleased with how he has used the image.
Hi Jennifer
Robert has carved it and then coloured it in. In effect he has reproduced my linoblock on the back of the bench. I suppose I could take a big sheet of paper some Ink and take a print from it!
