I carved this guy in basswood using the same pattern as my last carving, I had fun with this little guy, didn't have time to paint though.

Nothing like a smile to brighten up your day (or your carving).

Actually, I love my tax guy. LOL! When I first moved here I had H&R Block do my taxes. Then charged me $250 and I had to pay both state and federal. Next year this fellow did my taxes, charged me $40, and I got mucho moola back. He's been doing my taxes for 14 years now and I've shared him with others and they all have thanked me. Comes to my house too.
