Powder Horn for your viewing/critiquing
« on: August 25, 2011, 02:04:17 AM »
This is one of the first powder horns that my son Josh did about 9 years ago under the direction of Ron Ehlert!

I proudly display it on my mantle! Josh free-handed all of the artwork and finished the horn and plugged it.







My photography skills are not the best in the world!

Pass on to Josh, job well done. Good eye and layout. Are there any more recent works. Thanks for posting. Jim & Alyce.

The last time that he visited, he was working on another. Not sure if he has completed it. Will get pics when completed!

Thanks!

I see lots of SKILL there.  :)

Looks like a very nice horn. He had a good teacher for sure.    Smylee
