Arnold,
Great carving! He looks like he's tired of the task at hand and thinks he's slept on the ground too many times trying to keep one eye open. He speaks volumes! Nice work!

Terrific!! That's one classic piece of work! The carving is great, really clean and sharp. And that paint job....Great colors and just the right amount to let that wood show back through. I love it!!

Hope you're not going to Wichita.....(Only Kidding!!)
