Raccoon – Sculpture Update

Finally back home for some studio time.  It’s nice to get cozy with my wood stove again and move indoors for one on one with my carving.  This is a very peaceful time of the year when the last of the road running to art shows has lessened.  This means I  can once again get some serious time into the part of my profession that means the most — “hands on creating in wood”.

Wildlife Charm

Springtime is all about abstract, But Fall is a welcome revisit to realistic styling’s. Wildlife is a favorite subject and seems to please more viewers than any other subject area.  Typical of work falling into this category is this raccoon.  I actually started this last month, but only now was I finally able to return to finish it yesterday.  The finished photo’s have yet to be taken.  But I believe the finished shots will be of greater interest after seeing the fellow in process, as shown.  When this shot was taken I was only about two hours into the making of him.
