Default So far

Well here is where I am with the next one. Hope to do a little better.this dry cottonwood is very soft and it seems like every time I pick up a tool I have to hone it or I will get a chunk bust out.I think I will have to try some green. Vince

The slate is still somewhat clean yet. However, there appears to be some Native features coming through. Are you carving another NA Indian?

Hi Patrick, ya i`m gonna try.I am a slow learner so I will have to do them for a few months before I get the hang of it. I am still in the process of making small cuts and sneaking up to where I think I want to be. this is where I stoped for the day. As I walk by it I will see something and just gotta make a cut or three. vince

Well this is what got done before my son brought the twins over. Now for the rest of the day it is just hit it in between the king and queens demands.They never take naps together so it is busy most of the time around here.I have to say that they are a hand full but I LOVE it.
