Thumbs up Re: No Swimming!

Lynn .. your eye for detail is amazing .. this is a fantastic piece and the way you compacted the water in such a small space is masterly ..

What a fantstic caricature .. it's these type of pieces that often times reminds me of A. Andersons work .. but just in a more modern day setting ..

A 10.0 + for sure

Gene

Swimming....in this case not to be confused with bathing! Those cowboys had it together. Another excellent carving Lynn.

Dave. Just what are you doing to post a comment? Others don't seem to be having a problem. I posted one from a different computer as "Anomymous", hit the publish button and it went right through!

I agree with Ed - He's not swimming....... he's bathing! All he needs is a little yellow ducky.
