 Woodcarving display Two of us from the SD Woodcarvers were recently asked to do a mini-woodcarving display at our local arts and science facility. There was a kickoff for a local reading promotion. The book being focused on during the kick off was "To Kill A Mockingbird". If anyone remembers the book or the movie there were two small soap figures left for the children to play with. This was apparently the tie in to woodcarving...? Anyway, woodcarvers don't turn down a request to show their stuff so we did our best. Since the tie in seemed to be these little people, I did a sequence carving to show how you might make a "little person" out of wood. Attached are the four pieces I used to illustrate the sequence. Anyway the artsy group gave us a courteous look and we managed to hand out some bookmarks with our club info on them. So that was my Friday night....

| Re: Woodcarving display Wonderful display. Did you also show some of your really "excellent" work? I think the 'artsy' folks would have dropped their mouths open if they saw that displayed... Thor
