Default Sailing in the surf.

Good morning all. I have attached a few pictures of a bark carving I completed a while back. Tried some new details on the lighthouse.

Thanks Ron. I too really like the combination. The bark comes from a tree in Michigan north of Muskegon, near Lake Michigan.

Thanks Gene and Forrest. Gene, so much wood and not enough time. I don't have the patience to create stunning pieces like Fred Zavadil so I monkey with a bunch of different things. Just for the fun of it. Forest, I too really like the light house detail. I have it where I can see it so I can try some other details in the next one. Thanks again. John K Karver
