Great carving! I really like the expression and the detail in the face and the wrinkles in the shirt. Great job selecting colors.

Thumbs up Re: Muscadine Jim
Hobo .. Your cutting patterns are wonderful .... Its sort of like character of cuts you do ..

I really like this style .. it's different and much like a modern form of gouge carving .

Are your cuts with a knife or gouge ?

Really very very creative and wonderful to look at ..

Great job

Gene

I love the deep cuts in the clothes and skin. They cast great shadows on the piece and really give it character. Very well done.

Great carving, but, poor guy looks like he's been starving to death, better feed the next one.
