You just keep getting better Patrick that is an awsome carving, love the teeth gives the carving such character. I have it saved in "My Pictures" where I have an album named "Patrick's Carvings". Another wonderful carving my friend I am so lucky to own one of my own.

I just realized that I tend to name the female carvings but never the males. I'm afraid if I name him, I might not want to give him away. He might end up on the wall in my office.

Great work Patrick. Love the detail on the hair and beard. His expression tells a whole story in itself. Well done.
