[Woodcarver] bulldog carving

[Marcia Berkall]

John, do you have access to a graphics program that will allow you to 
print in "coloring book" mode?  If not..if you can scan a picture of 
a bulldog's head at that 3/4 view and convert it to black and white, 
it might give you a good idea of how to carve it.  Some more involved 
programs will allow you to find edges, resulting in just an outline.

Good luck..hope this helps.
