| | Re: Fall Carvings Great character faces. The pumpkin is a great idea for a fall festival. I have saved you Santa as a "go by" to practice my faces. It has the kind of warm expression I think a Santa should have. |

| | Re: Fall Carvings Mark, I like these. The expressions are great, the carving is clean, and finish is superb. Fess up you finish up your carvings with a sprinkle of magic saw dust....Tom H |

| | Re: Fall Carvings Wish I was going to the festival so I could snap up one of these----I wouldn't care which one! All 3 are terrific, as usual, Mark. Your expressions are priceless. Carving and painting both are terrific on them. I wish I had your skill level. Bonnie | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
