The Grumpy Woodspirit

I screwed up on this carving as I was not going to make a beard on it but salvaged the carving by making it with a large open mouth so it looks like it is yelling. Hence the Yelling Face.
As usual I mounted it in a framed mirror for additional composition.
Hope you all like it.
This carving was donated to a Motorcycle Run my Legion Riders is holding this Saturday for charity.

I wouldn’t say you screwed up on the carving, looks good to me Bug. You worked around a flaw and made it a more interesting piece. Keep at it, I like the style.

Thanks everyone. I read in a carving book that is you mess up try and save the piece if possible and that it sometimes turns out better. This one did.
I thought it was going to be another piece of “Designer Firewood” lol.
