St Ambrose finished

Gilded bees

Beauty is in the eye of the beeholder

How to hold a bee when carving. Thanks to my older brother for the title! The St Ambrose commission draws to a close. Pics of finished carving coming soon.....

St Ambrose progresses...

Glueing the frame

Feeling my way, carving light relief

There's no CTRL Z in carving!

 

More bees

More bees, but not yet enough....and not finished. They will all have gilded abdomens.

Busy

My next project involves lots of bees and a saint.......
