| | Re: Cedar Portrait Great!! I can almost see a story in the features. I'll have to keep that in mind about bending the feathers. Did you carve them first of after you steamed them? |

| | Re: Cedar Portrait Thanks again everyone for the kind comments, like I said before so inspiring.
Jim, I carved them first the detail is easier to put in when laying flat. |

| | Re: Cedar Portrait Hey Bruce, fine looking Indian you carved there. Unique hair style and amazing work with the feathers. I expect you'll be working outdoors more now with the weather slowly getting warmer.

| | Re: Cedar Portrait Cedar shingles, who'd of thought and they look great, very nice effect. Super carving the face takes on an glowing effect. What color did you use--just curious. Thanks for sharing.
