It’s been a while since I’ve been at the bench. Here’s one for a cinnamon girl.

Thank You! Good to be back. I was feeling a little out of practice and this one took longer than before I took a 9 month break. I moved and had my tools boxed away. Just took a long time to get unpacked and set up.

Great to see you back at it.   9 months is a spell, you didn't miss a beat!  Awesome work.

Thanks! Inspiration and creativity comes and goes at their own pace. Was able to bottle some up over the break.

Really nice belt!

I don't know what a cinnamon girl is but she is lucky to have such a cool belt. Love the carving and colouring. Top wotk

One day I got to try doing some belts like yours. I really like that look. Very nice.

Man I'm glad you a back Gray, I've missed your "youness". Yet another great bit of work. Did you always do that fine line work or is that something new you picked up? The  knuckles on the girl's hand and the ruffling, specifically. I don't recall seeing it on your other works.

A Neal Young song reference for a cute hippie girl. She knows a lot about the moon. Thanks!

I’m still trying to do traditional Sheridan style. It always comes out messed up. Like an adolescent cartoonist got hold of some leather tools.

Thanks! Definitely dialing in the detail work more. Discovering new ways to achieve better results. I’ve never taken a class or anything so I’m just making stuff up as I go along.

Thanks! It’s a bit wacky. It’s always inspiring to see the work of others. It makes me want to improve.

That's a really nice looking belt!
