"Day Job".......Brookie

Post by joe cieslowski »

Here is a mirror frame, 14"x17" eastern white pine. All hand carved, stained with oil stains.........no sanding on the carving. Four hours in the carving and two on the staining. It's cleared with a semi-gloss laquer. It was commisioned by a good customer/collector for an auction at a pretty exclusive trout club.......it might just "reel" in a few more customers. :D

Nice work Joe.

When Larry orders that life size grizzly, you'd better try your hand at chain saw carving!
