Cat's Eye Carving

Commission to carve a Brown Bear

My sculpture of a Brown Bear is coming along well, the limestone has a lot of fossils and hard veins of calcite through it so it is hard to progress quickly.

As you can see I am working to identify where the forms are before I carve too much detail. Although the face is pretty much finished that was my primary goal as this is the most important feature and if it didn’t work I would need to make changes to the whole carving.

Thankfully I am really pleased with how he looks and his focus is definitely on the salmon that he is eating.

The next photos will be of him finished.
