Default A few more of my carvings

"Winter Sentinel" is what I named the Kestrel. Fluffed him up like he's trying to stay warm.

"United We Stand" is the Bald Eagle. Carved the base to represent feathers flowing down and twisting around the base.

All life size. Tupelo and acrylics.

Very nice, Your painting is excellent. You should display your carvings in the WCI carver gallery. I think more people will get to enjoy looking at them.

Those are really great! So good that I'd say it's at least as good as God's own mold for those creatures!
