Hey All,

There are 2 more Santas posted in the gallery under holiday. So sorry I can't just upload them here, but it never works!

One is from Goody's blank and stands 7 inches tall. After carving him, he reminded me so much of Noah, I decided to carve a little ark for him to hold. Then, his green robe seemed too bland so I came up with the idea of an Olive Branch print. I was so surprised by the the results, that I didn't want to cover up the print with an ark, so I left him as is. My goal was to make the olive branches faded into the background, which I accomplished, only I'm not sure how well they show up in the pictures.

The other is a mini Santa standing about 4 inches tall. He's on his was down the chimney with presents in one hand and his bag of goodies in the other. After looking at this one, my friend Gary says I should do one of Santa delivering pizzas instead of presents!

Have a great one,
Jillsy
