Default Dog with Santa hat

Here is my idea of a dog with a Santa hat. I made a pattern. Then cut it out on band saw. I used 2.5" bass wood. He is 6.5 tall and 6.5"front to back.
After he was carved I painted with acrylic wash. ?s or comments welcome.
Carl

He's a cute one Carl, Don't think he will be ending up in the pound.

I like it, Tom

He's great! It brought an immediate smile. I may have to try one and adjust it to look like our dog.

Thanks for the kind words. The first two of these I made went to my Grandaughters.
