It looks like everyone has been busy this December!
Dennis, Debbi does a great job. I really like the duck signs.
Bob, the woodies are awesome! Great animation.
Dave, I really like the mellow colors on the can.
Steve, that is one of the nicest bird feeders I've ever seen. As usual, a very well planned and well executed design.
Bill, I always like the classic feel of your decoys. Even if I am not familiar with the species!
Here are a few things that I've finished. I haven't participated in the past few months, so here is the result of quite a bit of time in the shop. I spend most of my time doing antique decoy restoration, but I am trying to create my own style of contemporary decoys. The heads are chip carved, wings are slightly v-cut, painted in oils, no sandpaper is used, and they are lifesize (or slightly smaller). I carve the out of whatever clean, tight grained wood that I can get my hands on- Maine white pine, white cedar, or red cedar. They are all hollow and have flat keels. On decoys used in my personal rig, I remarque the bottoms. Thanks for taking a look!
