   These carvings vary from baseball to football.  I even have a golfer which I consider one of my best and most challenging.  Each are between 8" - 11" tall, are carved in Basswood  or Butternut and if painted, are done so in water base acrylics.

"Army Packer"

I made this carving for a friend of mine who in the Pentagon.  He is a Big Packer fan and also in the Army, so I made a Packer football player with an Army Camouflage pattern jersey.  The carving is made of basswood, the player stands 10 1/2" tall, and is painted in water base acrylics with light oak oil stain for antiquing.
