Wood Carving from Hamilton Wood Show 2013






     Last weekend I went to the Hamilton Woodworking Show, the show features some amazing wood carving.  Check out this turtle, I don't know if I will have the nerve to share my efforts with you readers anymore.
  
  These projects look absolutely real. The painting on the Penguin is fabulous but I like that fact that you can see some of the wood grain in the turtle.  If the grain is nice I really hate to hide it under paint.  If the grain is good and the object isn't going to be worked too hard I like to just polish it and leave it to show its natural beauty.
