More busts.....and then some

I have been busy doing some more baseball player busts. Here are a few more.

 

 


This guy is a Harley Refsal inspired carving, his hunter guy. I added my own special touches. I like him.

 

This is a walking stick I carved. it is about 66 inches tall.


I am trying to get ready for the Christmas Show coming up in December at the Fairgrounds. I am hoping this venue is more successful for me selling carvings. I have not found the correct place for selling my carvings, even though I have tried several craft and art shows, and have items in a store in Idaho City. None have been as successful as I have wanted them to be. Of course, be careful what you ask for. If I am too successful, that's all I will be doing: carving. 

My wife and I attended the Art in the Park event in Boise, as we do every year. I may have to try to  get a booth in there and sell some stuff. We shall see. So far there has only been 1 woodcarver on a regular basis at this event. He is a bird carver out of Arcata, California. His birds are smoothies and not detailed. Great work, but so far I have never seen any woodcarvers at the Art in the Park, let alone a caricature woodcarver. Maybe next year.
