Default Hand held cross
This is the first carving that I was asked to do by someone outside of my family. A friend saw a smaller one that I had carved and asked me to do a larger one that will be used as a prize at a fund raising golf tournament next week. She likes it, and I am pretty happy with it as well. It is carved froom basswood and finished with a mix of BLO and turpentine. Any comments would be appreciated.
