Default Momma bear and cubs
2nd carving. Bears are from basswood blanks, and the little rainbow trout in the 2nd cub's mouth was carved from one of the leftover paws.

I think you need to take the "slow learner" off of your handle.
That is a fine piece!

Thank you for all of the kind comments. Luckily for me the community college here has latched on to an excellent instructor.

Great job and great presentation. I expect to learn more of it.

Is you the one taking the photo we can see mirrored in the window?
