larry10 Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 Hi everyone, I used to be here some years ago, and have since kept an eye on things. I started carving netsuke in 1997 as a consequence of being a restorer of carvings, particularly small scale stuff, and thought I'd rise to the challenge of the netsuke form. I was hooked, kept going for a while until I thought I'd got something worthwhile, then got busy elsewhere, principally teaching. Now I've retired from teaching I intend to focus on carving again, have a website, get rich and famous like everyone here. The work of my own I enjoy most is the sort you might pick up from the forest floor - is this natural or has it been made? I like that edge.

Janel Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 Welcome to The Carving Path Larry, or maybe welcome back? Thank you for posting the photo of the pod. Could we see another side of the carving? Is this boxwood? I like the sense of fullness of the form and the definition between one lobe and the next.
