Sisters: Add some color!

Just another quick update. I spent the whole morning staining the signs and they are being sprayed with the finish as we speak. Pictures will follow tomorrow or Wednesday!

Sisters: Almost there

We're on the downhill slope of the project here. I finished the carving on Gracin and will be doing the sanding later this weekend. Tana and Ella will be getting their color today, with Gracin in tow (probably Monday). Looking at the three I feel like they are turning out well, despite how long it took to get them done. 

I'm personally off to Vegas for the weekend, so I'll give you an update once we're back.

Sisters & Location Changes

This will just be a short update. I'm half way done with the finer grit sanding on both Ella and Tana and am planning on finishing up today. Gracin is underway, but I didn't have the forethought to take some photos for you all to see. I figured Tana and Ella would just be more of the same, and held off on those as well. I need to have these done by next week, so expect some big updates soon. 


For those who don't know, I will be temporarily relocating to Portland OR for the next 4 months. This will not affect current orders, but shipping may need to be changed for the time being. More on that at a later time. 

Sisters Gracin: Been there, sawed that.

After regaining my freedom from finals earlier this week, I hunkered down and cut out the last of the sisters. It is nice to have all of that work done and now I can sit down and work with the knives. I've got a fair amount of time this weekend, so check back Monday for the excellent progress that I will make...

Finals: Enjoy yourself

Hey everyone, 
Most of you know, but I'm in the middle of finals, which doesn't leave me a lot of time to do what I do best. So between now and when I'm done, enjoy this video. It's a simple relief, but I think it is a good representation of what steps go into relief carving in general. 

See you all again soon.
