This is a piece I did for my wife some time ago. But she's been a bit picture shy. Hard to get one that didn't have too much glare or washout. Silver is hard to photograph under most conditions too. I'd carved the Corn Maiden but didn't know how to finish it. Even toyed with the idea to drill a hole & epoxy a bale in the back of her head. Then one morrning I woke up with the idea for the silver shuck. She wore it in Gallup & nobody had seen anything like it. She had to beat them off with a stick. From trying to buy it off her neck LOL Hope you like it & thanks for looking. My wife calles her her "little girl" LOL

Great Piece, Mike!

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
