Thanks for all the kind things that you (all of you) have said.

Faces? What faces? I think the coffee was older then a week whitecree. But then again you could be right.

Garry, I hope that you have learned as much by watching as I have by doing it. And I've been learning from you as well.

Whatsthat, Actually it's closer to low relief. I find that it's all in the undercutting. And I go over board with that.

Ron, it's made out of a basswood 1"X12".

Thanks
Dylan

I'm playing catchup on all the threads...once again, another fantastic carving. The overlapping of the stems and leaves really plays tricks on the eyes.
