Sign

This is a sign I carved from butternut to hang at the art shows I attend. I also carved a sign out of redwood for my son's business. It can be seen on his website http://www.gnwoodworking.com/

Alpaca and Cat

As I was setting up the backdrop to take pictures of my artwork, Sam, my cat decided I was making a bed for him! So I added the gourd to the picture since he was posing so nicely!! The Alpaca gourd is woodburned, ink dyed and painted, with a real alpaca wool rim.
