One shorebird ready to migrate to its new home as a perpetual reminder of the beach. He's carved from one piece of basswood and painted in artist oils. I had a ton of fun making the little diorama too.

Well the Solitary Sandpiper is starting to resemble the real thing and has lured in the first critter. ...or was it the tempting paper sack?

As Ken from The Barbie Movie said "My job is beach." All the details in this beach diorama are nearly as fun as carving the bird itself. The sea glass is from Puerto Rico and the shells are from Indonesia.

We're still around! Life just gets in the way. Slow progress on the wife's Solitary Sandpiper and I picked up an all-wood, feather-stamped Wood Duck drake commission from a good buddy. How is everyone preparing for waterfowl season?

Facebook has inexplicably restricted this page and I have no idea why. If you would, consider sharing this page with your friends. I have in the carving queue now a Solitary Sandpiper and the first duck commission of the year: an all-wood, feather-stamped Wood Duck (Aix sponsa) so standby for more!
