Carving Cotton Wood

These are wood carvings that some members of the Surface Design Group completed. I thought that they were wonderful and I'm very grateful for the permission to post them on my blog. Cotton Wood can be purchased  from www.chippingaway.com. I know that I'm going to check it out the next time I'm in Kitchener. I've only carved once with Bass Wood and I can't wait to try again on some of this Cotton Wood.
Blanca...I didn't post your last name because I can't find anything showing the spelling of it. When I have the correct spelling I'll be updating it. Fantastic work ladies.

The Talents in Many Hues

This picture was taken to show my bear totem mask that I made this summer in Haliburton, however, after viewing the picture I noticed just how much art is surrounding it. My mother made the lamp and shade, my husband turned the wooden bowls, my daughter painted the rock with the lizard when she was young and the quilt was one of my first, that I made using a paper pieced pattern.
