Carved this at my Harewood House, every body thought it was great but i had no offers for it' wonder why! lol. So i left it for there woodland sculpture trail, This is finished but i though she looked a little too nice and clean so a coating of oil and petrol did the trick eh!

They are pretty good, you should be able to carve owls , just get the shape first if they are big enough you will manage the eyes with the carving bar if not you can buy eyes from craft shops, just drill and push them in. Good luck Heres a biggish stylized owl i carved for my kids school -
I got first place with my Fairy & Dragon, whey hey! Second was Andrew frost with a chainsaw helmet with oak leaves. Third was Michael Tamoszus with an owll seat. Cheers, Tommy

I seen you, you passed me twice where were you taking the loads? 10" up is ok with me, I dont have a yard yet but I will be asking local farms for a bit land and a barn or somewhere to rent and carve on. I will be away the next two weeks as from in the morning but I will be in touch when i'm back. All of the carvings were carved from one piece of wood but you can saw your wood up and join pieces togeather to add your dragon fly wings and things, mine is all one piece. Thanks, Tommy

Thanks, for the comments and look forward to meeting some of you's at the APF, I'm going there to win that one! The winners of the open comp was voted by the carvers and I dont think they would of liked me winning! Mick Burns is an excellent large scale sculptor and i do admire his talent, i copied his sea shells when i started carving.
