Thread: carving . WIP

going great Spirit

Excellent Spirit

thanks all ,
just got a few more jobs on the wifies list then l can spend more time on it

it is getting one of them pieces that your not realy happy with ,it seem there is always some more detale to add or fix up

to many hands !!!! Have look my hands (Walnut ) Best regard Mikhail

Great job on the hands Limetree!

ok here it is all done
as we can see it is a pair of hands with a tree growing from it and the tree has sprouted a new pair of hands,
l could go into the meaning of this piece but l know some people like to find thier own road to discovery

to bad then it has a lot to do about the bond l have with my dad and the knowledge that has been past down ,or should l say grown up
IF A TREE HAS A GOOD STRONG TRUNK THE BRANCHES WONT BREAK


one thing l have learned doing this carving is ,time is short there is a lot that has to be said and done in life

well l hope you enjoyed shareing this wip with me and thank you all for your comments and input

Top effort, Spirit, well done

Yep, well done spirit,a strong piece,

Hi SPIRIT, the pics are fine but your comment is not quite accurate. There are no restrictions on mods pulling pics at any time. The rules state when they should be pulled, but it is up to mods to use judgement also. However, as I said, these pics are fine, noice work underfoot .
