Hi Mike,
I hope you do well at the show. This is a very nice carving. It takes both talent and artistic ability to produce something like this. Well done.
Thanks for the post.

Be prepared to accept “Best of Show”. I like to carve, but I can’t like that. You’ve got some great talent there and this piece shows it! Wonderful work and attention to details. Let us know how you did at the show – although I suspect I know the answer anyway…

I like the use of color, just enough to make it stand out. Good luck at the show.
