Horn being shipped out
« on: July 21, 2011, 12:40:45 PM »
I just finished this horn and I had to take some pics for the customer, so I got the hair brained idea to post them here for you all to see. Make all the critiques you want, I am always open to it. This was the horn I worked on while demonstrating at Lord Nelson's Gallery during history Meets the Arts. As always, Thanks in advance for your comments.

I really love the bold treatment of all of the elements.
Simple and elegant folk art.
The whole thing looks just right.
I need to sharpen my tools and take a lesson!!

Well Tim, very well done and love the tip.  Now I'm sorry I'm not the lucky customer.  I love it.
