I made this carving for someone who contacted me through this web sight.  He asked if I could make a caricature of President Obama.  I said I didn't know and would give it a try.  My sons recognized him and my wife thought it was one of my best carvings.  The carving of President Obama is 10" tall and on a 1 1/4" stand.  He is made of basswood and painted in water based acrylics.  (Sept 2010)
