Early November Visit

The studio is open on Wednesday afternoons. Our grand daughter, Mariah, and I have begun to visit the studio after school on Wednesdays. Today we saw that some progress had been made on our reindeer.

In this photo, the neck is in the foreground and the body is laying on its side. You can see the contour of the haunches taking shape.

Seen from the rear, looking toward the neck, you can see another view of the contour of the haunches.


Turning the reindeer over to see the other side of the reindeer, the block is in place to form the back haunch



and the front haunch is farther along in the contouring process:



Here's the progress on Daisy the little elephant:


A griffin named Sir Hugo Page is taking shape:


Here's the drawing of what Sir Hugo page will look like:



Here's one of the ponies being carved:

A close up shows the detail on the pony's head. There's an awesome braid in the pony's mane.


We checked out the painting progress on one of the horses, named Kalapuya:
