    My first commissioned wood carving...

    Just finished this plaque for a co-worker. It's a larger copy of a pendant she wears.



    I underestimated the amount of work needed to be put into it. Told her a week and a half and ended up being two months. Good learning experience tho. Hope she likes it.
