Great start Andy, and a great idea!
I see you were inspired by the same elements I was, I haven't got around to using them yet, but have the source saved.
Looking forward to seeing how this one turns out... you know how I love the Marquesan designs.
How is Winter treating you so far?
BIG snowstorm on the way for this week... then some bitter cold. We're looking at single digit lows by Thursday.
No better time of the year then now to hunker down with those paddles of yours and carve away!

Fantastic so far! I have to say that some of your cuts are not as crisp as previous pieces. Is the cold affecting attention to detail? I can't say much, because I am nowhere near your level of detail! More please.

Yowsas!
That is incredible, as if you yourself were a native of Nuku Hiva.
Aloha!

Seeks, Thanks.
Lake, Thanks. This one was designed to be a somewhat quick carve. Gotta start moving some pieces out the door.
Freddie, Thanks.
Mango, Thanks.
Aloha, Thanks and yeah not spending to much time on this one. Wanted more of a Whitco/poly-pop feel to it, So it will look like it's been on the wall for years. Got some more detail intense pieces coming up.
Babs, Thanks. Missing that SD sun right about now. -10 last night.
Aweulekuula, Thanks.
Here it is all finished up.
This one is will be going over to the Marketplace if anyone is interested?

Quick or not, detailed or simplistic... still a top notch carve!
Another piece to be proud of Andy... the skillz are there!
Stay warm out there on the Plains, damn cold here too at 5 above.
