Default Master Carpenter at Work
This started when I broke a small drill bit and thought I could use it in a carving. The rest of the scene just evolved. The figure is basswood and about 5" tall.

Great scene Steve. I understand what you mean about the carving "just evolving".....that happens to me a lot.
