Located in Indian Lake, NY, this started as a 14 ft. tall pine stump. What a breathtaking view of the Adirondack Mountains! It was a joy to work in a place so saturated with God’s creation untouched by modern corporations and chain stores. All you could see were forests, lakes and mountains. It was awesome and refreshing.
We decided to go with a multi-image carving full of native wildlife. Like this…
I started by adding on extra wood chunks for the top hawk’s wings, tail and head.
A soaring hawk
A fish
A rabbit and a bunny
An adult and child racoon…
A bear cub…
2 squirrels…
An adult and baby ducks…
Full size pics…
It became a working vacation for the whole family! We had a wonderful time…

What a great experience for the entire family. I can only imagine the beauty you were surrounded by. I love the angle of the hawk and the entire work of art. Well done again, Kris!
That is quite an ambitious carving that turned out so great!
