Well this will be my last of the year,I think? Don`t know what kind of wood this is but it was like carving a wet sponge. It was out by the trash can in the ally.It`s supposed to be some kind of Japanese elm or something like that. Very hard to put any detail in so I gave up. Vince

Thats about all I use also Vince,is found wood! Man you sure did a great job with this wood spirit in it! To me,carving something in a thrown out peice of wood and once you are through its very rewarding! No Details?? If you carved any more,he would have came to life!! LOL

Great work!! Tn~

Hi Vince, only a true artist can take a throw away and have the vision to see what others couldn't. Terrific work!

Great job on the wood spirit Vince. Was it really the last one for the year or did you manage to carve some more?

Looks great to me! Remember, one man's trash, another man's treasure and it sure looks like a treasure to me.
