This is wonderful! I instantly knew who you had carved, remembered the movie and the scene and realized exactly what your carving implied ... very nice!!!

Thanks to each of you for taking the time to look at my latest creation and your thoughtful comments. Although I find a few things I like about the carving, I find more that I don't like. I do not usually rely on dark humor to get a point across ( a lightning strike is usually not funny) and the carving does look a little blocky. I am rethinking the scene and if it takes on a different form I will repost. Perhaps I am being too critical but my carvings usually emit a happy look that makes me smile. I am just not smiling on this one. Thanks again!
Jim OH

MA, burning and carving is not the same as playing with matches and knives.
