Well, it's been a while since I last posted on this blog. But I have good reason to now...The piece I've been working on for some time is finally finished, photos and all.
One of the reasons it took me this long is I kept on re-carving areas I felt could be improved upon. Above, you see an example of this. But I finally decided the carving was finished. Then, it was time for the painting....
It's a strange feeling covering over the wood with paint, but here I go....
The painting underway....
The relief still on the carving stand, but the painting almost finished. Then there is the photography...
And finally, the finshed piece...

A closer view...
And a detail view. Now...onto other things....
