[Woodcarver] Just-For-Fun Carving

[Joe Dillett]

Hi Mike,

It was a bit "off color" but they have color correction software that could
fix it. LOL

I love the feeling of just carving for fun. Doing nothing serious with
nothing particular in mind and just seeing what might develop.Done just for
the love of pushing a piece of steel through a piece of wood. Sometimes
those turn out to be very happy accidents that we discover new ideas and
learn new things. This type of carving is not only fun but I feel it is
important to our growth as an artist.

OK, I waffled on posting this.  It's a bit "off color", but falls perfectly
into the category of carving just for the fun of it.  This is from Elmer
Jumper, a carver who I really enjoy getting together with at these NEWRs.
He seems to specialize in woodcarving patterns for the irreverent and
politically incorrect ;-).  I think it's perfect for that super serious
collector of Christmas Ornaments who thinks they have them all...

Hope you enjoy.


Keep on Carvin'
