I had some smaller walnut boards and yesterday thought Id relief carve them with a naturel finish with out any paints. The Cabin is 3 3/4 X 7 inches, it has some trees and mtns also. The Dogwood flowers are 3 3/4 X 4 1/4 inches Your thoughts are more than welcome. Thks Forrest P.S with the high prices of gas,I got me a new ride!! Old Jake!! LOL

Forrest, those will sell in a heartbeat! Love them both, but am partial to the cabin scene...and you know why! I, too, love the natural finish on both of these. The painting of your carvings is always masterful, and brings your carvings to such a lifelike state, but sometimes you surprise us with a natural finish, and we forget how really beautiful that can be! Your storytelling is beyond words....you're a piece of work, my friend!...LOL....Bonnie
