Hello Karin, Wonderful! The detail is excellent. By the way, the Panettiere you commented on came from www.uol.hk. They call it a Normandy French Bread Holder. All the best, Giac
This particular piece went to the man who has been giving me a lot of free wood as a thank you card.
However I will be carving lots of these little guys and using them as cabinet doors and such. Let me know if you would like one for yourself as a decorative wall sculpture panel or part of a piece of furniture.
I love your blog! I spent lots of time riding your older mail and I found that there are a lot of women like me around the world, you love tolls as gifts!!! lots of them, good ones of course. Aother thing, I also love wood working and wood carving, I wish we live close to one another! below are links to my blog, if you want to make a visit, you can see me learning how to carve...
That is really neat! I love the free flowing lines, and the use of the ancient design shapes. Don't know if there's a word for them, but in particular the half-round shaped little chips in the middle section of his/her body. You see that theme return very often in the Middle Ages, just like the classic rose you carved recently. I detect a direction here...? To be honest, I've fallen for that era too lately. The furniture gives you so much scope to carve; I intend to start out with a writing slope i guess. But your Dragon is cute! You must have had fun making it.
Debora, No secret about my direction. I often build miniature 16th and 17th century half timber buildings. Therefore it is logical to create the simple furniture from that era as well.
Stunning work!
ReplyDeleteI love it -- it's sort of a fishy dragon, isn't it? Beautiful :)
ReplyDeletewow I like it! I'm messing around with pear also---
