I Had a Idea to make some Valentime Carvings for Febuary, I think the next one will Have a Heart incorparated in it, The last 15 carvings I made where Hard Knock Classes, I made so many mistakes. I painted some mixing water base paint with oil paint that did not work, I stained some and did not like the darkness of the stain then painted on top of the stain and that changed the color of the paint, Well as long as I learn from my mistakes all will be well. TC members have been so helpful Thank you so much, I am truly grateful. Still have so much to learn but practice makes progress. All my carvings are under 2 hours I am not going to get better that way. I base my price really on time I am just making $75 - $150 carvings . I understand that if I make a carving with awesome detail. I can hold on to it and sell it for $500. I can only think like this because you guys are teaching me Thank you
