[Woodcarver] ?Nativity Scene?

[Dave Andreychek]

Merry Christmas Doug,

Actually, the North Woods Nativity is from a book by the same name by Cyndi 
Joslyn whose sub-title is Woodworking for Women, published by House of White 
Birches.  It is not a scene in the woods as the name suggests, but 
individual figures. Above and beyond the basic set of 3 are the wise men (no 
shephards),  woodland animals and trees.  I hope I don't offent anybody but 
it's not my kind or carving because there are no front, rear nor side views 
because the front of the carvings are made using the edge of the block of 
wood.  I only carved three figures and left out the rest because of the 
unusual (at least for me) style.  Now, when I carve caricatures, I make my 
faces that way, but not the entire body.
