While you were away...

Summer is a busy time but in between summer travels, the bald eagle is beginning to take shape.



I finally had an opportunity to ask Bart about the dimensions of the piece -- so here's the story:
A bald eagle is typically between 32" and 40" in length. 
This half-scale carving will be about 18" long and will take six-months to complete.
The dimensions of the initial block of wood were 8"x8"x19".

Bart is away until early September but stay tuned in mid-September for a photo update. 
I will be in the area then and see the piece in person for the first time.
