Default My smiling wife, Joo Hyun.

I carved my wife's smiling at features, a few months ago.
One day, I saw her smiling in front of some flowerpot.
It was very impressed me. Without delaying, I picked up my knife , and carved it.
It took about 40 minutes.

I am wondering what her flower was? Whatever they were, if they make her smile like that you should surround her with them!!!
Blessings to you both-her for the smile and you for recognizing it!
Great carving! What a treasure

Thanks for all of you.

Keoma, I don't know what exactly the flower name is, but I remember that had small pink and white leaves. My wife really likes flowers as if most women.

Wow; very nice. Had to take a second look to appreciate how few and how precise your cuts are. I also just visited your site. Yes, we will be hearing more about you.
