Dogwood in Bloom

This is my first original carved design, and I owe a great big thanks to Ron Fleming for all his guidance

That may be your first original carved design but I would venture a guess that it is not your first carving. I'm not a carver but even I can recognize the skill, the difficulty and the amount of work involved in all the undercutting and deep relief you did!!

It's a beautiful piece and I would love to know more about it. Care to share things like dimensions, wood type, type of carving (hand / power / combo). And how about that lid???? That looks like it could be a story all on it's own.

I have been a carver for many years and I must tell you that you did a beautiful Job. Did you use a rotary tool?
You should be very proud.
