Default new carvings
As I said in my last post,I was having trouble in my downloads, I think its fixed. Last year my wife and I went to a class of Don Mertz. If you ever have a chance go. He taught us to how to develope a carving from small blocks of wood. The ones you see hear are my design and some of his. They are 1"1/2x1"1/2x 6". I finished them with acrylics and Watco wax. Hope you enjoy them, feel free to comment. fred k

Very nice Fred . A real challenge to start with a rectangular block. Definitely tests your skills, and you passed.
