MA, burning and carving is not the same as playing with matches and knives.

Hey, Joe I too, love it! The faces on the bears is just wonderful, really nice highlights around the eyes, lot's of life. The golden brown of the fur and the golden sun lite casts is just great. The water was handled just perfect. Using the gouge to create the water ruffles is an excellent touch. Really, really nice one.

Hi Joe, looks nice as a sign too, I like both.
Here is a link to uploading images directly from your computer software to either the 'Message Board' or 'Carver Galleries'. Posting Photos
You can make your image larger for the Message Board 780 pixels wide by 580 pixels High. It goes in as a clickable thumbnail and enlarges to the above listed size. The 'Carver Galleries' images can be much larger. Take a look at the link.
