Very nice carving!! Wise choice on the frame color, it makes me feel like I'm looking thru a window at this great elk. This is a wonderful carving and one to hold on to. Keep those quality carvings coming!

Skip this is awe inspiring. I thought you should just put a light stain on the first one I saw...man I had no idea it could look any better. You are quite talented.
Thanks for sharing with us.

Catbird, Corey and Forrest thank you very much. This picture was not my own art work, The pattern came from Tandy Leather web site. They always have free download patterns.
Once I had it carved it was like number painting. Had to add a few touches of my own. Thanks all!! Skip
