Default Large Cedar Woodspirit

Hi Gang,
Just finished up this huge cedar spirit carved it out of huge white cedar. The tree was hollow so I cut it in two. It is about four feet tall and almost two feet across. Yes that is snow it came yesterday and didnt go away and is still snowing today. Not complaining it all part of being Canadian.
Colin

Hey Colin, you have snow already, guess though that is not unusual for Canada. Our ice hockey team 'Sun Dogs' will want to leave and head back to Canada. We don't get snow on an average until January-February.
Your cedar spirit turned out really nice, I love the expression.

How can I not go, 200 plus carvers from around the world!!!!????

We met briefly at the last one Colin, I was well wrapped up, I also had the Ridgway Rasp!
I think it was a combination of shouting over chainsaws and repeating everything twice due to my Limey accent!

I plan on socialising more this time! if I go!
