Default My tree house in bark

I have found that carvers are great people. When I first started I was introduced to a couple of carvers that helped out a lot , they helped me out with tool selection and give me a big supply of cotton wood bark. I have carved a lot of faces but still need some training. I bought Rick Jensen's vido on house carving and since then have done 5 of them. Small at first just to get the hang of it . Here is my fifth one. Thank you.

Thank you very much. After my first two or three it finally sunk in ( take your time ) I have a problem with that . I have always been a get er done guy. Hence my nick name ( Rams ). Once I start something I feel I have to get it done and it can't wait till tomorrow. I am slowly backing off of that attitude. I figgure once I cut myself and stab myself a few more times I'll get the idea that there is something worng with this picture and slow down more than I have. Again thank you. Later Wayne (mj).
