Throwback Thursday: carved dog

On By CarynIn Craft, throwback

In June of 2017 I did a small carving of a dog from a stick of basswood.

What I like about this carving is that from one side it looks like a lazy dog, but the back leg is not splayed. It is positioned under the body, ready to spring to action.

The quick brown fox would not jump over this deceptively lazy dog.
