Default My first bird and actually carving :)
Ok don't laugh this is my first carving that I have ever done. Well I did do a hummingbird but don't have the eyes so won't post that one yet. Please let me know your thoughts.

thanks
Tammy

I think you're off to a great start. Chickadees are such neat little birds and fun to carve and paint. Keep up the good work!

Tammy Thats a great carving be it your first or your last. I like it. The paint is good and the surroundings for it also. Keep up the good work and get those eyes and post the Humming bird.

Tammy it's hard to believe that is your 1st carving. Your setting the Bar pretty high for yourself. Very good carving as well as the Painting. Keep it up. Merle

Nice!

What wood did you use?

You ask about tools a while back. So what tools did you finally settle on?

What kind of paint(s) did you use?
