Experimenting

Hi everyone,
I've never uploaded pictures before. Hopefully these will show up. These are some of my earlier ones. I've been carving for about 5 years & I did these maybe 3 years ago. I'm not a very prolific carver, so improvement is slow & please don't look too closely at my painting skills.
Thanks,
DickB

Don't put yourself down, these are all nicely done! Much better than I did after 5 years!!
Happy carving!

Thanks everyone,
I appreciate the positive feed-back. I'm kinda proud of them, but they probably wouldn't get any where in a show. They're just decorative. I'm trying to improve the carving details as I go along, but I struggle with the paint.
Thanks again,
DickB

I'd be thrilled if I could carve or paint half as well, don't belittle your skills. (You got Mad Skillz, Kid!)

I'm with the rest of the crew here, those are fantastic and nothing to scoff at.

Be proud of your abilities as most folks would love to have a portion of your talent.
