A  while back Joanne asked me to do a carving for a birthday present for her husband, Jim. who is the mayor of Waskatenau. This is the small town I that live close to. Jim and Joanne owned and ran the Bigway store and Jim, also know as King, was the butcher as well. He sure did a fine job of making smoked sausage and kubbie burgers. They are especially delicious when he made them from some of our wild boar meat.

The design was adapted from a image I found on one of my CD's. It was carved in basswood, painted and antiqued with Delta Ceramcoat Acrylics. I then mounted it on a basswood slab.

 

The next two carvings were carved utilizing patterns from my book, (for more information click HERE ). Both were carved in basswood, painted with acrylics and mounted on old weathered white spruce boards. Each is about 8 inches tall.
