[Woodcarver] Love Spoon

[m.bloomquist]

Mike,

If it were basswood, that would be my first choice, but not butternut.  The
grain and wood color is too special.

 

I have seen butternut carvings where non-brown areas are painted
 have a
Clydesdale by Anita Karl done that way.  I always thought that technique
would work well on a whitetail deer.

 

Keep on Carvin'

This is for my oldest daughter on her wedding.  Yep. The fiancée is supposed
to carve this, but she requested it.  Secretly I don't think she trusts me
to instruct him with sharp objects ;-).  This is almost ready for satin
polyurethane.  Mostly done with a knife... maybe 90%.
