While I have been very lazy about updating the website this year, I have in fact still been whittling! Full disclosure, I have been distracted a bit this year with other interests (Blacksmithing, Beekeeping) and projects (constructing a small barn to house 5 adopted Icelandic Sheep and running a 1/4 mile of woven and electric fencing). In the end the call of Whittling returns and I pick up wood and knife again.

I have been fascinated for some time with a YouTube carver that goes by Ddalo (a Korean wood carver). I really enjoy their caricature style and have emulated several of them.

This little Squid is about 4 inches tall carved from basswood, mostly knife work, but if you have a V-tool why not use it!
