Another fine piece! You're definitely proof that it's not the tools that make the artist!

What a fine piece. If it were mine I would be really proud of it. I'm not talking about a purchase, I just want my carvings to look that good
Your detail and presentation are terrific along with the story telling inference that is suggested. Your ability to combine so many elements which blend together seamlessly results in an outstanding final presentation. Thanks for sharing and Congratulations

Dang Lynn! That ones great. But shoot there'r all great. Every time I see one your carvings I am faced with two "things" one, throw away all my tools and carvings, or two, pay more attention and practice, practice, practice; in hopes of improvement. So far I am still trying to improve....Thanks for such great carvings.. And for your willingness to share and to try to help us novices. Tom H

Lynn....I've only been a member on this forum since March 2007, but I have to tell you that your work absolutely astounds me. I am partial to cowboys and western theme carvings as it is, but the attention you pay to every single detail in the carving story is unbelievable. Every time I witness one of your pieces, it spurs me on to try that much harder. Each carving is incredibly detailed and the painting is gorgeous. You have a huge fan here. I am very appreciative that you share your work! Bonnie
