Default Maiden...first part of three

This is the progress I've made on "Maiden". The first of three pieces in basswood, measuring 12" X 1" X 36" each. Maiden, the Mother, then, Crone. They will be cut out with the arch at the top, and the frame part will be carved as well. The progress is very slow, but I'm enjoying it.
Thor
