As my work tends to be more on the carving side, I think this would be the way I would like to present myself, and will add to it as we go along. This year started with cabbing, and repeated heavy-handed and clumsy hands leading to simple carving. At the beginning, it was mostly simple lines to save either broken or waste pieces. Snakes eventually lead the way to a little more. Then came a multitude of shapes and materials. Raching for the stars and sometimes getting close. LOL But my favorites for this year must be the following I love the simple ones, where you got a natural background and then just framing it. But I do have to admit that I mostly wear the "Giving a Hand" and the " Key"! Thanks for looking, next addition is nearly done so there might still be two possible additions before the year is out.

Very nice work, don't think I'd have the patience for that. Could that plant be fireweed?
