That's more than one carving a week...reminds me of myself when I first started. We're starting to see your style of carving take shape. Your doing really well and trying some new twist to your carvings. I'd be curious to see one of your carvings with the eyes burned in to keep the natural look. I've been encouraged to do the same so I let the wood grain tell me if I paint or just go with oil. Burning looks really sharp when its only oil being used. Thanks for letting us have a look at your carvings.
