[Woodcarver] Mini Bust

[m.bloomquist]

Corey,

 

Sounds like a great workshop.  You sure came away with a good piece.  BTW, I
liked the hillbilly bottle stopper too, and the story that went with it.  It
just reinforces the idea that there are "no mistakes, just pattern
alterations" ;-). Nice work on both.

 

Keep on Carvin'

Hello all, hope everyone is having a great weekend. Today at the club we had
Denny Neubauer of Denny Tools teach a class. This was a class on whittling
on a stick, face structure etc. We used only a knife and no other tools.  We
all got basswood handled knives to carve a custom handle. Most decided to
carve a practice stick today and take the knife home and carve later.  I
worked on a face with Denny. Not only is Denny a great tool maker he is also
a great carver. I enjoyed the class. When I got home I turned my head into a
little mini bust and mounted it on a walnut round I turned on the lathe. The
bust is painted in acrylics and finished with Satin lacquer.  You can see
the item at: http://iowacarver.tripod.com/id5.html 
Thanks for looking as always!
