Gee wiz that a small carving. Don't know how you keep your brush so steady doing that detail. You've got a full scene in the palm of your hand. Just amazing Forrest. Patrick |

Showing off again I see. Why not - that's a pretty neat scene you got going there. And not one knife cut on that hand.

Forrest, I don't know how you do it! That is carving at the quantum level. Pretty amazing! And a wonderful folk art scene.

Forrest, I just have to echo everyone else. I'd be cross-eyed & have bleeding fingers. Great carving. DickB |

That is great but also crazy , I don't know you can carve something that small. How do you hold some thing that small and still carve. To small for me. Good work. Wayne. |
