Hello everyone here is a update on what I am working on. The first one is going to be a lumber jack from basswood. I roughed it out with a draw knife to get started. He will be 18 inches tall when finished. The second is a relief of a wolf on a cliff the I have about 80 hours in already the deepest recess areas are 1 1/8 deep and I still have some to do yet as you can see. The third is the plaque I have been working on for the guide dog school I attended. I actually painted this myself with a little help on colors. Everything to me is black & white. In the fourth pic you can see maybe how I came up with a painting guide. I took some foil and folded it about 4 times over to make it stiff but pliable and just held it around the area I intended to paint. It took me about 29 hours to paint this with oils. I had a picture of it taken and I loaded it on the computer so I could see it. Needless to say I am going to blow my own horn on this one and pat myself on the back I am very happy with the way it turned out. I was actually not believing more or less shocked that I did this but mom and katy swear they didn't do any more than help with colors. I will eventually finish it with several coats of poly to protect it. I tried to make it tactile so students at the school could actually feel the picture. Let me know what you think your'e opinions mean allot to me good or bad.
