Hey Lennie. Haven't seen a carving from you for a while. Is this your first female carvings? I remember you were planning on carving one. Your style shows through again. Very nice carving.

Well son, you got her finally finished. Mom and I have been waiting for her. You've come a long way in a year and I gotta tell you, each piece is better than the last. Good for you, look forward to seeing her in the flesh. If I don't see you before, I'll certainly be there bright and early Christmas morning.

Excellent work Lennie, Thumbs Up, in my opinion she looks like she is about to bust out in laughter.

I like that carving a lot. Thanks for posting. Whenever I see how others' skills improve over a relatively short period, I'm a little more encouraged that I might, too.

I really like the eyes, I have never done any human carvings. She needs a mate. How tall is she?
