Default A Pair of Poodles

This is a carving I just finished Painting today, I carved it last week. The Great people that commissioned me to carve it had a similar poodle that passed. It's about 4' tall from a Maple tree that had to be removed due to the moss buildup on the roof. The photos show the general progress.

Bruce, I'm blown away, what a FANTASTIC job you did on that carving. The way you've painted them I would think they were cast in bronze. I'm sure you didn't have any problem picking up your check for that job. Great work indeed.
