| | Dove Carving I just finished a flying dove carving. It's from a pattern by Rosalyn Daisey. Her books have been a big help to me. Tupelo and acrylics, mounted on a grapevine.

| | Re: Dove Carving I agree, Paul.....very nicely done. You've caught that explosive exit the doves seem to pull, and have the coloration down just right!

| | Re: Dove Carving Nice work Paul, and the mounting is very nice also. Squarebriggs, you have a competitor for a clean shop. Look at Pauls web page, and then tell me his shop isn't clean. Verrrrrrry Clean. |

| | Re: Dove Carving Wow! Beautiful bird, Paul. Great website and a big Congrats on your White House experience, what a honour! Hope I am not repeating myself, but I do think that bird carvers are the ultimate carvers. How someone can get a piece of wood to look SO soft is way beyond me. Would love to learn someday though.
