Here’s one that I can’t remember! It’s Lots of detail and evidently he picked up that soldier coat in some battle. I like him….even though I don’t know where he came from! Comments welcome.

The Kid – Decenber, 2015
With the new interest in Billy the Kid caused by the finding of the new photo I thought I would do another version of him. I had a generic head on the work table which I didn’t much care for so I repurposed it for the Kid. One thing I would have changed is decreasing…
The Oldtimer – October 28, 2015
This one was finished a couple weeks ago. He stands about 12″ tall with the base and is a little more realistic than normal. Looking at the photo I think a little less white on the beading patterns would have make him look more pleasing but he still looks pretty good. Considering the more realistic…
The Gambler – October 7, 2015
While searching through Ebay a few weeks back, I came across this little bronze bust by David Lemon. The price seemed reasonable so I put in the wining bid. We’ve collected two larger pieces by David and drove out to his studio in Ennis, Montana years back to meet him and pick up our first…
Standing Red Bear – September 30, 2014
Yes, I know…It’s been almost 3 weeks since the last post. Since then, we’ve made a trip out to Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons, returning home to an AFIB attack which resulted in a trip to the hospital for a cardioinversion, and then returning home to a new computer so I can once again set…
Jar Head – September 30, 2015
I actually made it back into the shop the other day to finally finish this little bust. He turned out so well I’m thinking of using him for the Dayton show carving auction instead of “Pancakes”. I’m sure there are a lot of viewers out there who will relate to this one more than the…
Bad News For Billy
It’s Friday the 13th so I should have expected something would happen. Unfortunately, it happened to the Billy Little Fox video series. I had hoped to get the first segment posted on Thursday but a combination of badI memory chip, camera problems, and a new computer’s refusal to accept the recorded material resulted in the…
New Video Series – Billy Little Fox
Quite a few of you have been asking about when a new Video series with come out. Well, how about today? This will be a fairly short one and also one which shouldn’t be so difficult. If you can carve a Santa you should be able to carve Billy Little Fox! We’ll be using 3″…
Buffalo Bill Cody – August 21, 2015
Buffalo Bill Cody is one of my heroes in American History. Truly a remarkable man. In his time he was without a doubt the most famous man in the world. If you ever get the chance to visit the Cody Museum in Cody, Wyoming you should take it as it is one of the best…
Rooster Finds A New Home – August, 2015
Driving up to Winterset, Iowa, we handed over my carving of “Rooster” to the new John Wayne Museum this past Tuesday. They were quite excited about receiving it and placed it in the “True Grit” display case right next to the eyepatch John Wayne wore when filming the movie. Funny…when I mentioned that Judy and…
