Wood carving is my passion, but I also love to paint, draw, and sculpt. This blog will contain photos of all my art at some point. I hope others with similar loves and those who may only appreciate will enjoy looking.
These jolly fellows are carved from basswood, and sugar pine, old spools from textile mills, and aspen. I used hand tools--knives, and gouges. I paint them with acrylic paints and mix my own formula for antiquing them.
They like to hang out in the forest and tell stories of old times.
Wow! Amazing Santa's on display for us all to enjoy. What talent you have. I can't imagine how long it takes to create?
I am honored to meet you and welcome you into Blogland. Em is just one of the best people so of course its an honor to meet the Woman that started it all. ;)
