Stylized Seagull, Made out of Duck Carving Cut offs

oh my goodness .. the Seagull has quite a story!! Abduction. Yikes.

It’s beautiful.. graceful flowing lines.. I really really like it!!

Dick, I really like this one. Although one cannot condone theft, I do understand this guy’s desire to have this beautiful piece.

keep up the great work.

If imitation is the most sincere form of flattery… could theivery possibly be the second?

anyhow, very nice graceful lines. The grain is particularly interesting on the wings. I love the silhouette from below.

Very beautiful! I wish I had that kind of talent. Excellent eye for dimention and flow.

I need to do this with all my buddies. I’m going back over all your projects that I’ve missed. This is a beautiful piece Dick! It may be stylized but it captures the movement of gulls better than a real life carving could. True art! All the focus goes to the movement. I half expect to see a splash any second as it hits the water.

Thanks everyone,
Whenever I have cut offs from the bandsaw, I try to imagine what I can make out of them.

That is a beatiful stylized seagull, Dick. I’m glad they caught the guy trying to steal it. What happened to him?

He was drunk, & the person at the fair just told him to go home.

Thank you Artesano,

I think the grain of the wood is what makes this carving.
