To add more dimension to the waves, I sanded a sharp angle on the top of the waves to catch more light. To heighten the effect the lower part of the wave is dished out to cast a slight shadow. 
Woods Used:  Various shades of Western Red Cedar, Aspen & 3/8" thick Spalted Maple for the background. 

Suggested Blades:  Gold #5 for Western Red Cedar or any softwood. Platinum Plus #5, Titanium #5, Titanium #5R, Platinum #5,  TLB #5  for the hardwoods.  PLP #2/0, or TLB #2/0 to cut the interior lines (after the exterior lines are cut).
