A few more cats I've carved

in artzone •  6 years ago 

In this post, I have just a few more cats to share.
One that, along with a few other pieces, have helped me gain popularity on Facebook and among my peers in the industry.
A lifesize mountain lion:

This piece was 6ft long and 3.5ft tall and carved out of one piece of white pine. The picture was shared so many times it got lost so to speak. Pages were using it to farm likes without giving me as the artist credit. Luckily my industry is like a tight knit community where my peers recognize my work and call out the plagiarists. I try to do the same when I see it happen with other artist's work. It happens all too often.

Another cat I've done is this white tiger deep relief in white cedar:

Not too complicated and definitely not as popular as the mountain lion ready to pounce. But still worthy of a share.

And lastly, another tiger:

This one shows the watermark I use for my Facebook page. Funny though now that I use it, my work gets shared less on the platform. One of the reasons why I'm now on Steemit. I enjoy it here immensely by the way.

I hope I'm entertaining my followers here with my work. I have much more to share, new and old.

Very skilful work - resteemed.

The first one looks fantastic, you have excellent talent!

Love the first sculpture.

Wow... so cool. Beautiful work.

@aishaali thank you, I have much more to share and I'm just getting started. Thanks again for the support

I can just imagine the time and effort it takes to put that work in!!! Nice work..

Thank you @trebonn it's gets easier every time, and with a sharp chain, can be pretty quick. I do have to step back often though to check proportions. Thank you for the compliment

Very nice work! I really like the white tiger :)

Thanks for your support @jonatftforest!

Your works are just too real, it looks just like a life lion that you took it's picture. Wow nice work keep it up.

Thank you @meritigbunu the mountain lion frightened my dog when I finished it. I know I've done well when this happens, thanks again

You have been so great and full of excellent hard work..

Man you're work is awesome! The detail is great, what is the most difficult piece you have done?

Thank you @terrywayne I'd say this dragon was the most difficult because it involved building or piecing it together. Took a great amount of planningIMG_20180325_123622467_HDR.jpg

WOW!!! I can only imagine the amount of planning lol

That's an awesome dragon!

Wow beautiful. You should carve me sometimes

@justinansako that is entirely possible, although human form is something I struggle with sometimes. Hands and faces can be difficult with the chainsaw. Thank you for the support

Awesome!! I would name it Peaches. Keep up the great work... Can smell that freshly cut wood.

@jonatftforest these works are amazing. Art work brings out human ideas and thought

@emmauelalayemi much appreciated, art can also bring happiness and smiles as I notice it on my customer's faces when they pick up their orders...the greatest feeling, thanks again

Your work is just amazing. It took me a little bit more looking before I could conclude it was carved...(the mountain lion)

Incredible work. I'm not part of your industry, but I won't soon forget your art and will certainly help to keep poachers off, pun intended. #carryon

Those are amazing!! I saw your post on Caturday Discord channel, and had to come over to check it out. I'm following to see what else ya got.

=^..^=

@jonatftforest amazing work of art.

WoW I thought that was real then.

@nurdien thank you for your comment, I have much more to share...stay tuned

Wow , you're so talented and I love how cute the second last tiger 🐅

I enjoy seeing your work. Your art is commendable. The power of your mind and the ability of your hands is great. I also like to learn this art. I wish you the best

@raha thank you so very much, I absolutely love what I do. Waking up every morning knowing I get to create something brings me great joy.

That's some serious talent you have there. Thank you for sharing your passion.
