Default Trygg style hobo
This is my attempt at carving a CJ Trygg hobo. I used the three photos in Harley Refsal's "Sandinavian Style Woodcarving" book as a reference. It was good fun and stretched me! I found the carving challenging and had to guess what the back might look like. The painting I really enjoyed and took my time with it to get it as close as I could.
Hope you like my efforts!

Nice work, Simon - that facial expression is great. Nice detail on the piece as well.
