Senior Reporter on the Job

[Rodster]

Here is a lil' guy who knows his way around words.
I wanted to whittle him; to avoid carving birds.

He isn't very big; only 4 inches high.
It's nice to carve figures, with nothing awry.

I used basswood, 1 inch ... by 1 and a quarter.
To carve my lil' guy, who is a reporter.

He ferrets out the news and tells all the folks.
Only the facts, Ma'am; No lies and no hoax.

Nice flat plane carving Rod, and of course the appropriate poem.

Well, Rod, you made the deadline with this carving, always enjoy to read your narrative and look at your carvings

Good one Rodster!... .... not sure which of your talents i admire the most, carving, painting or poetry, they are all great

Nice job Rodster, judging from the bottom of the pictures, it looks like the editor got after this fake news artist.

Good one, Tom. I like the reporter / editor jokes. Aha! JP Butler made one as well.

How about this one:


I don't think I'm well-suited for a job as a newspaper editor.

Even my blood is a Type O!

Nice little carving! Good humor in the comments, as well. I am also Type O blood - guess that's why they made me a moderator...
