Santa Claus, the Painter

[Claude]

This is my latest Santa - carved for a special order. santa is 8 inches tall, not counting the base. Basswood and acrylics. My customer sent me a photo of a carving he wanted. I searched around the web but couldn't find who carved it, so I made several modifications and carved it.
