Mark Have you decided what your mountain man will look like in the Creede class.
I am signed up for it.
I took your indian bust class last year and it was great.
Creede is a great place to get a lot of instruction at minimal expense from the best of
carvers like mark. Creede is also one of GODS" most beautiful creations

Hi Jim, I start on the mountain man bust carving tommorow and should have it ready for duplcating by midweek. It will be larger than what I stated at the Creede website. The carving will measure apporx. 12-inches in height x 6-inches wide and 5-inches in depth. Thanks for the comment. Hopefully we'll see you at Creede again this year.
