Default A Roaming Gnome and a Cat

Here are two more caricatures just completed as we are starting to hit real Winter weather here in the North East. The Gnome was done in Northern White Pine while the cat was spawned from basswood. Both painted in acrylics!

Again to all, thanks for the nice comments!

Garry, think this cat is closer than a cousin, more like a sibling from the same litter since both this cat and the one you bought were carved from the same basswood stock! This cat is also litter box trained :-)
