Now I would say that those biscuits definitely had the correct measure of Baking Powder! So light….so fluffy…certainly different that the one’s Mom used to make! And no….I’m not going to share the recipe!

As I said earlier, not to many caricature carvers try to portray the fairer sex except when they do it in what I consider a less than tasteful manner. That’s too bad as I think there are really a lot of opportunities to have fun with this gender and still do it tastefully. I think that this piece does that. Granted, she does have some bodacious attributes but even they are displayed in such a manner that you wouldn’t have to hide the carving when Mom comes for a visit.

In doing a female character the face is the hardest part for me. I think I’ve figured out just what one needs to do to get that feminine look and maybe in an upcoming post I’ll show the steps I use to get it. There is still a little room for improvement in certain areas of the face but I’ll try and correct that in future carvings.

So, go get your cup filled from that pot of coffee hanging over the firepit and set back and relax till Latigo Lil comes around with that plate of trail muffins. Just remember when she dips low to hand you one HANDS OFF!!!
You can make a comment though.
