Default Todays Work.....New Woodspirit
This is what I carved today, another wood spirit. I call him Isaiah. He is 2 x 10 basswood stick split down the middle. My largest to date and probably the best piece I have carved yet. Finished with satin poly. Thanks for looking as always.

Thanks all for the kind words. The photos don't show a lot of the detail in the eyes etc. Poor lighting. Thanks again!

Corey

You placed this fella under caricature but I think his features are more characteristic of another style of carving. Either way, nice carving....like how you did his eyes. Your woodspirits are really looking good.

You really got the detail right on this one, especially the nose. Thanks for posting.
