Howard, my friend, I was wondering what you were keeping yourself busy with. You have a great collection of carvings there. Your masks are beautifully done and the bowls a amazing. I really like the expression on your second mask with the goatee. I hope they see the true artistry with which you created your masks and bowls. Let us know how you do.

Thanks guys
Hello Ed, Yes I have been very busy with my new studio I have just been setting up. Still have a lot of work getting that finished, though I started carving a day or so after I rented it and moved in. Haven't unpacked most of the stuff, just enough tools to get going. I worked till the wee hours last night getting the last mask painted, as I have to hand them in today, also just posted it on Wood Carving - Sculptures - Wood - Stone - Canadian Artist - Woodworking - British Columbia, Canada and here in my photos, members gallery. Thanks Ed for the support.

Mateo,,, Thank you and how are you? Yes I do hope to have fun!!!

Keoma ,,, Good to hear from you also my friend, Clever???? I don't know about that but I do thank you for the love and support of my work!!!

Christina ,,, Thank you for your kindness as well. If I get any where near the kind of support I get here it will be over whelming... I am gratefully for the encouragement all of you give, that really helps make my walk easier!!!

Those are great. I really like the 2nd mask. They are both great though, bowls are cool too.
