Does anyone do Santa carvings? I really enjoy them and would love to learn from others that carve them. Thank you, John

Here's a Santa Carving I did recentlyIMG_20200402_114414.jpg

Hopefully the flag won't trigger anyone. I was recently denied entry to a contest with this because or "Racist associations of the flag." In Canada!!!!

Wow! That's really nice!

I don’t know how you do this, but keep it up! I saw some step by step tutorial videos creating scene characters, I plan to take a stab at it. Maybe I can one day work up to it.

Very nice, you’ve got a steady hand! Good job on those petals in particular.

Just had a good friend and neighbor diagnosed with cancer. My wife is good friends with her and has been helping her get to appointments, etc. Thought I would try to carve something for her. Googled up and went with a Doug Linker video, on Youtube, about how to carve a gnome. Mine didn't come out too much like his (ha!). It was a lot of fun. I'll give it to her today and tell her it's a "Good Health Gnome...but; mostly, a "Good Friends Gnome."

Well done, Doc!
What a great gift!!
And may the Lord bless your friend with healing of the cancer.

Ready to go fishing! Carved out of a small block of basswood.

[doglegg]

Do bass like candy corn? Might work. Great carving and paint

[Doug51]

Whittled out of a wedge shaped piece of scrap wood I saved. Cool dude! Probably make a refrigerator magnet out of it.

[Doc B]

Very COOL dude! You might have to go in to the bobber business, though!!!

[Doug51]

Thanks Doc
A simple feather I carved from a sliver of basswood.
