Wink My latest carvings

Just thought I'd try and show what I've been working on. I hope the pictures show up ok. I'll try and put some additional views of these carvings on my picturetrail site, but for some reason it's not letting me upload any pictures to my site right now. Maybe tomorrow I'll try again. Anyway, the first carving I titled "BEST BUDS". It's from Mike Shipley's new book. The second is a little hillbilly guy from WCI also by Mike Shipley. Last, is a Santa which was inspired from a Steve Brown santa. Thanks,

Chipper67

Oops, that last picture was the wrong one. I'll try it again. It's just a front view of my Santa.

Chipper67,
Great job on the carvings and paintings. I especially like the eyes on the santa. I sure wish I could paint that nice. Beautiful job.

Dito on Santa's eyes! Wonderful detail in the painting colors. I really paused to appreciate the details because of the care you took on the eyes. HIs little medalian with his name on it and the gold belt add a great deal to his success as well. How big is the Santa? I enjoyed seeing all of your carvings. Great color for the hat on the guy with the hound too. Do you use acrylics? oils? or watercolors?
