Work and a few other things have kept me busy and unable to do much in the way of carving the last few months. I did manage to finish a little dog for my nephew’s birthday. A few weeks late, but I got it to him.

The dog started out as a branch on an elm tree in the yard. It was part of the big limb that the wind took down last spring. Finish is nothing fancy: just the Howard Feed ‘N Wax that I use on most of my found wood carvings.
