Default Some Driftwood Santa Ornaments

Not only carving bark I had a bunch of small driftwood pieces that I have collected over the years that were lying around so I carved them into Santa Ornaments. My inspiration for the driftwood Santa's was from Lisa Rogers no where near as good as hers but I am still learning. Fun to do deciding where the faces should go. Thanks for looking

Colin - You've come a long way as a Santa carver since last year. You have shown a lot of imagination and perseverance. Go get tiger

Question - what's your painting and finishing process?
