Keychain Sculpture

I haven't had much experience with sculpting in wood. I found it to be much easier then I expected. I wanted to make something for family members that would last so I did the carvings below in lignum vitae.

Lignum vitae is a very hard wood which makes the carving process difficult. I enjoy it though and have another one to start on. It is the kitten seen below.

Actually it's late afternoon and this is the first posting to my new blog. The goal is to share my latest art work in the form of oil paintings, watercolors, and drawings.

Here we go!
