Well done Gene, that's a real honour! Great piece for it, he looks just like an early Texas pioneer!

Nothing like a good stogie after a hard day's work supervising.

Good work, Gene.

Thank all of you wonderful carvers for your encouragement and support ..

The kind words are appreciated ...

doing a 6 1/2 inch guy like this was different .. but that's what the director wanted to match the other exhibits ..

You are all a great buch carvers and I appreciate you so much ..

God Bless you and your famlies ..

Thanks again for letting me share ..

Gene
