I have been inspired for this relief by Benoi Deschênes a great carver from St-Jean-Port-Joly. I found his drawing very nice so I decided to carve it.

I finished it as Fred Zavadil teaches on his site: 2 coats of sealer and oil paint that I wipe with a clothe.

Wow, I like that very much!

Thanks Charles.

 

That's nice work! You had 2 very challenging carving concepts - faces and draped cloth. Congratulations!

Thanks Mary.
