A Cane To "Bear" On!

[Eddy-Smiles]

I finished this one just before my latest medical trials and tribulations came on last week. It's a piece of tulip poplar that was growing out of an embankment up at my place in east Tennessee. I could have left it at walking stick length but since I use a cane decided to cut it down to cane size. It's approximately 2" in diameter by 36" long. The bear tracks are woodburned and the bear is finished in acrylics. The cane has about 5-coats of oil based polyurethane on it to give it a long lasting finish.

Re: A Cane To "Bear" On!

Thanks Gang! Much appreciated! And yes Catbird, I have put this one to good use already! Unfortunately, no pretty nurses were involved! But then again maybe that was a good thing as mama would have put me back in the hospital again! Ha! Ha!
