Laid Back Santa

[Claude]

This is my version of the Floyd Rhadigan pattern in Winter 2016 edition of WCI Magazine - I've modified the pattern in a couple places... Santa is 5 inches tall, including the base, and is carved from basswood, painted with acrylic paints.

Nice carving Claude. Off season eh as his cloths are a little saggy, and has a laid back look about him. His work is done for another year. 5 oclock somewhere.
Carve On,

Santa certainly does have a laid back look about him...like he just finished a job well done. Nice work on the carving and painting!
