| | Re: eagle PARTING SHOTS,,IT'S DONE,,FINISHED ,,FINITO,,KAPUT!,,
I'm sure you're as tired of looking at this as I am.I can't wait to get it out of here 'cause now I'm starting to pick it apart. Had to include the Alpha and Omega shot since you saw this from the clay,to the glue up,rough out,carving,burning,painting,etc...But here you go.Thank you for being there with me, I've enjoyed your company,comments and questions.. |

| | Re: eagle Great job on the case Mark. Those edges look invivible. That way there is nothing to distract a viewer from the beauty of the carving.
Thank you Mark, for taking the time to share the experience with us. Watching the journey has been a wonderful experience for us, I assure you.

| | Re: eagle Mark, the carving and painting are beautiful, but the symbolism of this piece is absolutely overwhelming!

| | Re: eagle Thank you everyone,,your kind comments are thoughtful and greatly appreciated.As much as I do enjoy finishing a piece and displaying it,the thing that has really kept me posting for the past 6 months is hearing "How did you do..show me how you made,,you gave me an idea to do a,,," That alone gives me a thrill and really melts my butter.It may sound trite,or cause some to roll their eyes,,,but it's true and makes my day.So glad you enjoyed this,,thanks again. |
