Santa Circle

Here is a carving design that I picked up at the carving show in Lincoln City. I bought a pre-cut blank and just needed to carve it to the final shape. There really were no instructions, just the set of pictures that you see on the table beneath the carving. I finished the woodburning of the beard tonight. After I started taking pictures, I went back and made one more change to the face, so the picture straight on is a little different than those from the side.

Enjoy, and be careful of the splinters.
