Here is some of mine. I do about anything, but oils are my favorite. I sometimes do artwork based on historical places I have detected such as the camp scene here entitled "Camp Georgia." That's a local Confederate winter camp and I dug a hut pit right where it shows the tent and that's me sitting there. Lucky to be able to make money from creativity.

The latter one is a real effort. There is no thread used. Three pheasant tail fibers, bare copper wire and a hook. They sink great but are a cast-iron snitch to tie.
Excellent work! They look so real.My closest to art is semi-practical.

View attachment 1862287 View attachment 1862288 View attachment 1862290 here is a small table/bench....it was made from 3 consecutive slices of the same cuban mahogany log. Partner said this log was a waist of time to cut. There are no fasteners, and it is all mortise and tenon and glue for construction. Its coted in acrylic urethane for wear and uv resistance. I believe in using every bit of these logs as I can, and we used a slice from this waist of time log for the telecaster also....haaa I proved the point to my partner that even the blondest and most plain wood we have is spectacular !!
There is not an artistic bone in my body...
However my wife is loaded with talent, she is a silversmith.
Easier to add a link to her website.....

I'm not an artist but have been a bricklayer \ stone mason for over 40 years. So this is as close to "art" as I'll ever get.
