Default Finished Pieces of a new woodcarver.
The First Photo is my first attempt at a gnome based upon an instructional design booklet from Lauara Dunkle I got at my first woodcarving expo.


The Second photo is 4 I made for Christmas Presents and progressed with my design even though they didnt look anything like the origional design.


The Last Photo is my newest Gnomes I made for a Family member.

Nice carving and painting. Don't worry about them not looking like the pattern. I still cann't get my finished carving to look like the pattern or idea I started with.
