After many hours of meticulous work, I am happy to have finished this walking stick. It is carved completely out of one piece of wood. I always celebrate when I manage to finish a walking stick with two subjects, being concerned that I might make a mistake on one part or the other and ruin the project
Mice are fun but troublesome. Carving beady little eyes and getting everything symmetrical is quite a challenge.

your sticks are all wonderful and it is very nice you put them up for all to see when I’m looking for carvings I always see and know your carvings on different web pages thanks again.
I have only just discovered your website. I clicked through after you left a “like” on Nick Hunters wordpress site. Nick is a friend of mine and I very much enjoy seeing his works in progress as much as the finished carvings. I have been knocked out by your work and this latest walking stick is wonderful. I’m sure I would appreciate it’s finer qualities even more in the flesh. What you do with wood is quite magical and it is a joy to visit your website. Thanks for documenting and sharing your work. Best wishes for 2015, Mr Cafe 🙂
