Default :Its My Chesse:

This is a new type of carving for me cause Ive not carved a mouse or cat before. But it was a fun little project and I hope you enjoy it.

Wish you could see it in your hand,my camera doesnt take good close ups,doesnt show the color of the cats eyes that good.

Mouse-7/16's wide X 3/4 inches long,Cat 1/4 wide X 7/8's long with tail,base 7/8's wide X 1 3/4 long. Wood was pine and painted with acrylics.

Hope you enjoy "Its My Chesse"

Thanks for looking,Forrest

Carve a little sombrero and you could call it, "It's NACHO cheese".

Forrest,
Cute little scene. Like the cat and the mouse. Glad I caught this one. Keep them coming.

Safe carving and God Bless,

Mark

OMG, that's another winner in the "mini's" for you, my friend! How on earth did you get that cat to look like he's actually creeping and his paws are in motion as well....he's so tiny! I simply can't believe you get the detail you do on something this teeny. Love the cheese! Looks good enough to eat! Just sitting here shaking my head at this one! Great work in the painting department as well, Forrest! Bonnie

Can't stop smiling Forrest. You might say I have 'cheeeeeesy' grin. Another sure fire winner there mate. I am a fan for sure. Joe.
