Thumbs up Re: East Coast Sam

Hobo .. He is fantastic .. I love that type of carving you do .. very different from most styles .. your cuts are the accent of the entire character .. and your painting with oils are top notch ..

Your style is a very special way to carve and just right for those type of figures .. excellent job Hobo ..

Gene

Hobo, you continue to out do yourself with your carving ability and telling a story with a standing carving. Is he a self portrait??? as he lives up to your name. Thanks for sharing.
