Hello all, I've been a fan of woodcarvings for years. It is just fascinating to me. I started carving on and off a few years ago when I had time. I did a couple little things (santas, clocks). I have attached a picture of my last carving. It's the largest one I've tackled so far. It measures approximately 2 1/2' x 2'. My husband did the painting for me.
