Monarch @ Fairy Lake -step 2
It was crazy windy and stormy out today. Got a half day of carving in. Worked on the wings and chrysalis’. Feeling good about it indeed.
Monarch @ Fairy Lake -step 1
I’m finally carving at Fairy Lake in Southampton. I’m tackling the biggest stump first, a monarch butterfly feeding on a milkweed flower. Chrysalis’ hang on the leaves. Much still to do. Muscles getting a good work out!
Bit of media coverage
Here’s a newspaper clip from the Shoreline Beacon for the Saugeen Shores.
Buffalos of Hanover
Just finished carving two buffalo heads into a multi stump of maple. Challenging, but fun.

Packed and ready to go to the Southampton Art on the Fence tomorrow; August 6. Come and check out painters, wood workers and me! Down town by the flag pole.
Bear with The Sillies
This bear is enjoying an excellent book of children poetry written by Judith Buxton and illustrated by Peter Storck.
Buffalo times
Practicing in clay for a multiple stump carving. A buffalo head is an impressive thing indeed.
It’s summertime, time to read that fun novel at the beach! ⛱
These two bears LOVE to read, especially those Winnie the Pooh adventures. It was fun carving these two.
Sunny day carving at Timeless Materials
First sunny day in awhile. Carved until the forearms ached. Carved Wizards, clean cut guys, mushrooms and owls
