 Re: Bust Progress from Ancient Oak Great job on the hair. I rarely do any hair carving as I am yet to do a full bust. Your facial features look right on from what your sharing in the pics. Patrick  |

| Re: Bust Progress from Ancient Oak Very impressive work. It's so hard to capture the randomness of nature. A boys hair is as random as can be unless he is going to a school dance, or his mother just combed it.

| Re: Bust Progress from Ancient Oak I finished this project today at 4:00 PM, and I am pleased with the results. The grain is absolutely amazing, in a manner of speaking. I am sure that I will be asked why I chose this material for a bust, when it is so unconventional in finished form, but I personally like the unique character. This bust of my son is what I hoped to achieve when I started carving 11 months ago, and I feel as though I have accomplished something with these results. My friends and family cannot believe that I had the patience to finish this. I have always been an extremely anxious person when it comes to tedious tasks: easily frustrated and too much of a perfectionist. Thank you all for being so nice with your comments and suggestions these past two months. This message board gave me the encouragement to see this thing through on several occasions. Sincerely, James I. (Foundwood) Smith Wilmington, NC |

| Re: Bust Progress from Ancient Oak A Very Wonderful job what an accomplishment, got to be proud of that for sure, thanks for letting me be a part of it with you, loved the results that grain is gourgeous, just can't beat the look of natural wood, that's what i always say.......
