Forrest, i like him,he looks maybe a bit bewildered(sp) and maybe a little tired, kind of how I feel lately, but thats OK!You did good and all your bears and other carvings always have a whole lot of personality going on!

I'm with Sharon. You got a lot of personality into that face! One glance tells me he's a Forrest Original. Another keeper.
