Default Ship at sea
This relief carving of a clipper ship under sail at sea is carved in Basswood, and measures 18" x 12". I can't seem to get enough of carving these scenes, sorry if they seem repetitious to some of you, but I really enjoy doing them. Practice makes perfect and the ocean always shows a different face, and I love trying to capture each and every one.
