Great carvings!

I also want to thank you for your website – Especially the exercise on carving eyes. I've got my practice sticks all marked up and ready for the weekend.

Don .. I was lucky enough to see some of your little guys up close at Pete Englers shop in Branson ..

The pictures dont do the real life justice .. They are fantastic to see in person .. The detail for minature pieces is incredible ..

To see one yourself is to see the minute detail .. and thats what makes your pieces so great looking ..

Excellent one of a kind carvings Don ..

Thanks for sharing
