    Default Another picture carve

    Just finished this picture carve for a pet that passed away. This is only the second time I have been able to get a picture to carve out half decent. It seems pictures are very hard to carve if you have a lot going on in the background.

    Really turned out well.
    You are correct on the back ground being busy.

    Rather it is a wood carving such as you have just done or a litho it is
    a problem some times with the back ground.
    Happy Carving

    yea its a hard carve this is my third 2 came out one just wasn't very good. I didn't paint the name because I did not want to take away from the carve. Thanks for the nice comments.

    I have never even attempted picture carves I usually do Lithos. Just always felt they would not come out well, Yours is very nice.
