(9,462 posts)4. Fraser Smith does similar work except he makes wood sculptures that look like quilts or leather
jackets. My favorite, and one I saw in person, was a pair of old Levi's. Even two feet away you couldn't tell for a second they weren't wood. It's fascinating what this man did with the money/wood and what Fraser Smith does with wood. I couldn't post the pic, but here's a link to a piece he won an award for last year. Also click through the gallery and look at the leather jacket. You won't believe it.
