Default My Carving is Going to the "Dogs!"
Shellelagh and Mindy that is. They are the pets of our friends Pam and Lee. I thought a relief carving of their pets would make a nice Christmas gift and thank you for all they've done for us.

As you can see in my blog (Sig.) Mindy proved to be somewhat frustrating to carve due to her "haircut."

Thanks Paul. I hope they will. But I believe that anyone who carves or makes a one of a kind piece for a gift, the recipiant(s) truly appreciate the meaning and intent of our gifts. And, that's what makes carving so special.
