Ordovician, Nicolet River Formation, Sowerbyella
Denis Arcand posted a gallery image in Member Collections
From the album: Fossil Art
This picture was taken as is, it was not photoshopped, everything is real in the picture. Only the contrast has been adjusted a little bit. I took this picture at a small beach where the fossils are underwater, so I literarily fish for the fossils. You can read my two articles on the subject by clicking on the following links: The day I went fishing for fossils (part I) The day I went fishing for fossils (part II)-

Hello all I have sort of a side project I am wanting to do. I have a small thin wood panel box that while interesting I want it to look cool as well as having use of storage. I have several small give away fossils that I want to put to use with it by putting them on the box to look like it's made of matrix with fossil inclusions. My first thought was to just use grout but having ever done tile/grout work I was unsure how well that might adhere to wood. So my next thought was gluing the fossils to the box and adding in a glue and sand/crumbled matrix to it to make it look sort of like matrix and cover the gaps between the fossils. I was thinking super glue for the fossils them selves and white Elmers glue for the matrix. In my head I sort of see it looking like the matrix you see in the Morocco fossils (the crumbled sandy look). The problem I see is that the Elmers glue seems like it might be too thick to just use straight out. Has anyone done anything like this and thinned down the Elmers glue and if so to what mix? I was thinking using water to thin it down and doing a 1/3 ratio. Thanks for any ideas or thoughts. When I get it done I'll be sure to post it up.
