Gotten behind on projects, so this is the “latest” upload. The carving is in mahogany, from drawings of roses in a Berkerley (California) rose garden in the surrounding hills. I spent hours drawing the selected blooms (I'm not an artist) and finally (months later) created a composition that appealed to me. The blooms are of several varieties of roses, .. to those who care, .. get ov er it! I decided on 8 of 12 roses, because more would have been too “noisy” and too crowded. The final project is about 17” x 20”. The extension beyond the frame was a last minute decision which was an appropriate choice! The project required edge glueing two sections of a mahogany board I'd acquired. I presented the finished project to my fianc (eventually wife and mother of my son), who was present, and encouraged my drawing activities.

Yet another pandemic bait. Can't wait for ice out. A lipless crankbait with a new chrome paint called spazstiks. Made of cedar (an old deck board). As usual I make everything but the hooks.BTW….I do make other things besides baits you know. Look at my gallery. I've got a combo dresser/changing table in the works. It's almost done.
