These relief carvings are carved for my Grand Children. The horse is for my oldest, Megan. The baseball players are for the twins McKenzi & Dusten. The small dancer was done for Isabella and The balet dancer is for Abby. I did these for Christmas. I for got I never put them on the forum.

Skip, I think these re the kinds of items that are keepsakes and end becoming family herlooms. To us they're just nice gifts, to them it is as you said, a part of you that they'll treasure for a lifetime.

Skip,some how I've missed these neat carvings of yours.Its hard to pick which one I like the best seeing not only did you do a great job of carving them plus your painting really made them also.They are a very neat and one of a kind is what I like the most about them.

Just good work indeed~ Forrest
