Unknown Indian
Ouch! I just accidently deleted the my entire description of my latest carving. I’m disgusted!! I’ll try to flesh it out again in the next post. Hopefully, you won’t have to wait 2-1/2 months for it to appear. It is looking pretty good so far. Sorry!
The Okie Kid
Here’s one I just finished yesterday. This is the first full bodied Cowboy I’ve managed to complete since last year and a few months further back from that point. I won’t belabor the reasons other than to mention a heart operation and a new home. We gave up country living and moved into town. The…
Montana Pete
Believe it or not….I actually finished a new carving!! The story behind this one came about during a discussion about Cowboy hats at our Tuesday carving meeting.

Carving A Chuckwagon Cook Bust – Part 1
Ok! Here we go with a NEW video project. I know it’s been quite sometime since Judy and I sat down and opened up the Out West Gallery video production office so it’s going to take a little bit of effort to get things oiled up to where they were before. This is going to…

https://youtu.be/EZI6-iQeTkQ It’s been so long since I posted a video to the blog I thought I’d better see if I still know how! I hope you like this short one of past projects. Comments welcome.
Buffalo Runs Him
Here’s the latest! Finished at last! It’s taken quite a while to get this piece wrapped up but now he’s done and ready to saddle up and head out to the nearest Buffalo herd to stock up for the coming winter. As I’ve done many times before, the earrings are made from hammered metal ducting,…
