Great job Bill! That is one mean looking Mother! Great job on the detail, love the finish too. The claws in the back make a great touch. Well done.

Nice one! How did you get the bear to hold still?

Yes, the claws in back only adds to a nicely carved piece.

I guess you got it right! A beautifully done piece. The carving works wonderfully with the wood, and the presentation is excellent!
