Hello and good morning all, Today I'd like to share a piece I built and carved for my good customer from Maine that we visit every year in August. The monarch on a flower..

Here it is in the raw and all chainsaw. This was at a local event I was invited to. Happens every year in July. I didn't have a log big enough for the flower so it was convenient I was invited. Didn't sell anything at the event but I did get to bring the flower home for my order.
