GaryMc, your woodburning turned out great and I love the border.
What's next? You know you can't just do one.

Wonderful greenman too!

Hello and thanks for the comments.
Kathy, I don't know what is next probably some of the things in Susan's book.
Susan I love your book and I read it most of the way through, but confess I didnt' do all the practice. But I did some. On the greenman I really used some leather techniques I learned years ago, I used to model leather pictures, holsters,belts, ect. this really is the first picture I have burned. I am hooked and will now have to go back and do some more of the things in your book.
Thanks!
GaryMc

I have to agree with Susan and Kathy, great job and it is really hard to believe that's your first burning!

Well done the problem with burns is that they become addictive as you are always finding new projects
