| | Re: Commerson's Dolphin Nicely done Tarik. What type of wood is the base? And if you don't mind me asking did you carve the fins separately or as one piece?

| | Re: Commerson's Dolphin That is a beautiful piece Tarik. I would have done something different with the base, but understand your concept with the stick. Great carving.

| | Re: Commerson's Dolphin Hola Tarik.....Great carving! Really like the base. A lot of carvers forget this most important piece of presentation. While your carving is excellent that base just sets it off even more. Good work.
I think you meat Killer Whale vs. Dolphin? Never seen a dolphin with those colors. |

| | Re: Commerson's Dolphin Would love to have that sitting on my desk at work. I have a passion for water and whales as I am an avid sea kayaker. Nicely done.

| | Re: Commerson's Dolphin Lynn....do a google on the Commerson dolphin, it's a dolphin alright, with the coloration of a Killer Whale. Native to South America and also found in the Indian Ocean.
