Default Christmas fun with sticks.

Hi guys , I'm pretty new here to this website and I love all the carvings I'm seeing and people I'm meeting , it's great.
I'm still trying to feel my way around and trying to get used to posting some of my work to share and get comments on also.
One of my favorite things to carve is santa, so I thought I'd share a couple of santas I made out of sticks from my backyard.
Nice to meet everyone ....keep carvin guys, I can't get over how creative everyone here is... I love it......
Kevin

Hi Kevin, those are darn fine lookin santas. If these are some of your first, you are in for a whole lot of fun carving caricatures.

Hi Kevin,

Wonderful Santas. You did very well getting them on sticks. Sometimes sticks can be tricky since there's not much wood mass to work with. Trust me, I know.
