Patrick, really nice job. Like everyone else, I like the eyes. But I also like the job you did on the mustache! Looking good!

I fully intended on putting some wavy hair on his head but as you can see from the photo in the centre - he has had a lobotomy so I didn't have the wood to carve on that side of the head. I thought best to leave well enough alone.

It's a beautiful piece! I love the expression in the eyes.. The eyes are the windows to the soul and you have captured it! Charlotte
