New projects

[Mark N. Akers]

Here's some pictures of what I have been up to, yep, still carving, just not able to post as much as I would like to, but cooler weather is coming, at least thats what the weather man keeps telling me.Anyway, here's a couple of my new ornaments, and if you've seen the downloads by Lori Irish, their is one called "Fun Spirits", I used a couple of these patterns and reduced them to make a couple of Belt Buckles.

Top-notch work, as usual, Mark! I'd recognize your work anywhere. Hard to pick a favorite here, but I love the last two. Bonnie

Hey Mark ,
Outstanding job! Great idea on the belt buckles. Did you attach them to a metal buckle? I have a lot of people asking for anything with coal miners. This may be something I may try. Keep on carving my friend!

Re: New projects

I also love your spirit charicature - very expressive and fun to look at. A slightly different face than the others you do - I think this style will do well for you.

Re: New projects

Great job...such wonderful expressions you carve, I am jealous of your talent. Anyone would be proud to hang one of those guys on either their tree or their gut.
