I want to do a little Christmas in July, today. It's going to be Christmas again before we know it. O.K...sorry, guess that isn't what you wanted to hear. Anyway....My brother carves and I wanted to share some things he has done and is working on at the moment. Here is a Santa he carved and I did the painting. Santa is holding a staff with a blue bird on it. Doesn't Santa have the sweetest face? He also has a bag full of toys over his shoulder.
Here are more Santas that brother carved waiting to be painted. My sister-in-law wants to learn to paint, so I'm going to teach her by painting on these little guys. I will post a picture when we get them painted. Below are two pictures of an Eagle that brother is working at the moment for a lodge here in Ga. He took a thick piece of Bass wood and is carving this eagle out of it. He was working on the talons when we were out there this afternoon. They look pretty wicked. It's amazing to me how he can take just a plain piece of wood and create something so beautiful out of it. This has gotten me to thinking about how our "Master" creates us and breathes life into us.
