last rabbit

[stave]

Just wanted to post this last carving, these are pretty much all the carvings I have done this year. Like I mentioned before it has been a busy and difficult year. The carving is basswood and is finished with watercolors, acrylics and oil paints. Trying to get more realistic with each attempt and trying to add a new twist to each carving as well. And yes I have a weakness for rabbits, just something about them I really like carving but I am learning to live with it.
Thanks for looking.
