I carved this angel from a a piece of white pine a few years ago and had planned on making more for a small income around Christmas time - but a torn rotator-cuff curtailed that activity and I have never tried another one since. Maybe blogging this will push my starter button once more.
The Old Barn - On A Warmer Day
 |
The bottom photo shows my great friend George MacKay standing on the scaffolding he had put up quickly (in about the amount of time that I would have been thinking what to do) on this fine day. He cut the uprights (spruce) from a stand across the road from his home, freighted them down around the two bridges and up my lane and then working steadily without wasted motion had her up in an hour or so. "That will get you started", he said. And it did.
The top photo is me starting to work my way up with the roofing deck - a day or so later, in the middle scene, I'm almost to the top.
