Love the suspenders. What an expression on the poor cow! Very good.

At the show this past weekend, in Hickory, NC, the class I took on entering competitions made a list of how they judge pieces, and some of the key points that they hope to see are originality and conveying an emotion or expression of movement. I think you've got those covered!

I carved a "Christmas pig" one time, but I like your cow better! Great idea.

You should try a pig (or other animals). My pig was upright (on two feet) with an obviously fake beard that was hanging low below his chin.

You've inspired me to re-think my previous attempt. Thank you for sharing.

Thor thank you for your comments and such a good compliment. Mitchell here in Iowa a Christmas pig would be very fitting. Thanks for the idea.
