Default Sample of my efforts to date

I’m new to carving. I started carving about four months ago and have become totally possessed with the art. I haven’t been able to insert or attach any pictures in a post so I put them on a web site.

My work is amateurish compared to some of the impressive work I have seen here but I have high hopes. Iwant folks to see my work to critique and make comments, that might be helpful in my learning. They will be appreciated.

This is the URL that should take you to my website and pictures of my efforts.

Those are fine pieces of work. I'm impressed that you took on such a diverse number of projects and did well with all of them. Love the spoons.

You've done some real nice work there, and if you've only begun four months ago, I'll be excited to see your progress all the way along. Great variety, and nice detailing. Keep up the good effort. Practice, practice, practice.

Bob

You're doing a wonderful job! Very clean and smooth. Your work doesn't look "hurried" at all; like you're spending quality time on them, not just trying to get to the finished result.
