The intention of this page is to bring you information on all matters that,
although not strictly marquetry, are associated nonetheless with the
marquetry theme.

To start this page off we have some interesting veneer based art works by Mark Jacobson which use a unique and newly discovered method of colouring the veneers that we think you will be very impressed by.

Mark calls his work "Veneer Mosaics" and he uses textural and unusual impasto techniques to give a feeling of depth to his work.

Have a look at these examples of Mark's work and do feel free to let us know your opinions on these new techniques.
