I discovered I loved Chip Carving...
This was my introduction into chip carving on a large scale. Here we have the bald eagle, a profile of a native american, a turtle, feathers etc. done in chip carving on white cedar. The work is mixed media too for the edges have braided leather too. Had tons of fun exploring different wood stains.
I loved designing and producing this art and am working on some more. Gotta tell you I was more than a bit nervous with the carving. Not of cutting myself (I'm from New York-little scares me) but of ruining the project with a very wrong cut.
