Robinson Project

Robinson Project

Objectives: to create a unique work of art for the space over the mantle AND create a unique, full carved Green Sea Turtle.

Starting Inspiration: 2009  version of our Nantucket Sleigh Ride, and an idea yet to be determined.

Finished Commissions:

Green Sea Turtle

60″ long, 53″ wide, 8″ deep

Please review the color materials for approval of paint hues and style.  Final finish on the turtle will be done to ‘match’ the Sleigh-ride in appearance.

  • Top of mantel : 7′ 4″
  • Top of mantel to bottom of windows: 4′
  • Top of the mantel to the top of the quarter round window: 7′
