Default Carpenter Carving

Here's a Carving I just finished, It's elm tree about 8' tall. I will paint the clothing when it dries out some, it represents a local resident of the community. It actually looks like him. The first photo is the tree early spring

Hi Bruce, and the 'elm tree' lives on in a likeness of a person of the community. Super carving, I hope you will show us an image again of it painted.

When you say member of the community, do you mean River Hebert? Fine carving as usual. Always impressed by your carvings.

Thanks everyone, this is a fellow who passed away awhile back, the carving is in front of a house he renovated in a town near by which he got an award for, his family commissioned the carving. It was a treat to do because I knew him and had many dealings with him, great fellow.
