Hello and good morning to all,
Today I'd like to share a piece I carved for an elementary school in New York City.
A comical blue tiger cub is their mascot..
Here is the reference photo they had for me to go by.
I didn't get any before pictures unfortunately, but I blocked it out and let it sit next to the wood stove for a good month to dry out and crack. Which I knew would happen because of the type of wood used, cedar.
Here it is with the cracks filled, ready to shave and finish.
Burned him completely with the torch..
Then sanded the char off with the flap-sander...he was ready for paint...
Yep a blue tiger...next up, the flag.
All finished and delivered, proudly displayed at the school.
I'd like to thank you all for looking and seeing what I saw. I love what I do and I'm happy to share here on Peakd. There's more to come so stay tuned..
Thanks again,
Jon
