Hardboard medium for art using wood from a wine barrel

摘要

The current invention is a three dimensional medium for painting and artwork. Pieces of bowed wood, more commonly known as staves, are taken from an empty wine barrel. The staves can be of different types including French oak, white oak, or American white oak. Once the staves are extracted from the wine barrel, they are reused to create a medium back-drop for painting and artwork. Much like an artist that uses a canvas for the back drop of a painting, the constructed three-dimensional medium made is used as a back drop for a variety of artworks including paintings of custom flags, images, and portraits.
