Little Bird

[Carver Lady]

Basswood

Little Bird was a fun carve and adding the earrings was an idea that came to me out of the blue. Little Bird resize.jpg

Great carving, like the detail and lack of paint, just the color in the eyes and earrings set it off

Beautiful carving, nice detail, the headpiece is wonderful and the earrings was a master stoke. Just enough to really add pizzaz.

Magnificent work! Great detail and I like the unpainted look! The earrings were an interesting embellishment too!

Great carving!! Nice, clean cuts. Great face and expression. What kind of wood did you use?? What finish did you put on??

Hi Kathy, Great Carving and very well done. I see Mark Gargac teachings in the Carving, you paid Attention to his Instructions. Good seeing your Carvings again. Merle

Thank you, Joe there are times when I enjoy not painting a carving and this is one. I wood burned the eyes and added some varnish.

Hi Bob K. thank you, I like the unpainted look too....I actually painted another one and didn't like it at all. Sometimes embellishments work and sometimes they take away from the carving.

Hi Merle, thank you too! Yes, I love Mark's work and it was wonderful to be able to travel to Creed, Colorado and take a Mountain Man workshop with him. I'm carving a santa ornament now....feeling rusty.......got all my tools out today and cleaned and sharpened them.
