Default :Wood Fellow:

This woodfellow is carved from pine,hes 3 3/8 inches tall and 3/4 wide,stained which made him look kinda like ivory.

Havent carved in a while,finally carved this wood fellow last night.
Been busy with the 9 day art show in the ski area of NC. Got two more VA's Drs appt this wk and I hope to get back into carving some more very soon..Knocked a hole in my right arm elbow yesterday besides this Im fine as a hot stew on a cold snowy winters day and 40 people invited for supper.lol
Missed commenting on yalls work.

Still hanging in Tn like a rock slide trying to get to me.But I always come out on top with a little dirt here and there its still good breathing this Tn air.

Hey Forrest,
Good to see you back, hope you sold everything you took to the show and made a ton of money.
I like your little guy and hope that your appts. go well this week at the VA. Going myself to get some new ears, the only time I care to hear is when the grandkids are talkin' to me, sure hope these help, I usually smile and nod my head because I can't hear much anymore.
Get back to carvin' ole buddy and great to hear from you.
Dan
