<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I just finessed a relief carving of Geese in flight </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Carved in basswood </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>size is 28" x 18" x 2 " oval shaped </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>this is the second time I carved one like it 2 years ago </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I used Birch that time and it worked better and crisper than basswood</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Picture can be seen in my #3 PT Album </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I thank Bill Judt (and DEBBIE)for letting me come to his studio for a whole week 2 years ago and got me started in HIS type of relief carving </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It sure gives me a better insight on relief carving </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Merry Christmas </FONT></DIV>
