Talking Current Project

Thought I'd share some photos my wife took last night of the commission I'm currently working on. It's a half lifesize Bald Eagle.

Outstanding work! I've yet to understand where you serious carvers get all the patience to do such intricate work!

Wow, he looks like he's alive and like he's waiting for you to finish the last feather so he can take flight! Absolutely beautiful!

Jeff,
This is Hana (Fred's wife) with Fred beside me... First of all, thanks to your wife for taking the pictures - I know how it is since I do the typing and majority of the time take the pictures....
Your work is spectacular and we hope that you will let us see the finished project soon.
Thanks
Hana & Fred
