Heron Driveway Gate
This is a design I worked up at the request of Joe Neel who did a fantastic job on the cut and fabrication of the gate from three 4' x 8' sheets run vertically. All plants and animals incorporated were drawn from pics of the actual specimen. The owners have small animals so the bottom 24" of the gate could not have an opening more than a few square inches.

Re: Heron Driveway Gate
Thought I'd show a bit more of the construction, give a better view of the cut. Sorry, don't have a close pic of the right end.

Re: Heron Driveway Gate
Great drawing Ben, the fact that it doesn't look like it's supposed to be a gate when it's just sitting there is a true testament to your artistry!
