I like the shapes and expressions, but I really like the way you finish them.

I heartily agree with Phil! Very well done, Mark.

The faces on all are very expressive. Very nice job in carving and painting!

Wonderful, expressive carvings! Curious about the bag clips…do you use those little metal clips with the red rubber tips like I’ve seen at Harbor Freight? Epoxied on, or screwed?
