very nice Lionel, is that sapwood the lighter color in that yew, you have chosen your piece of wood carefully---pretty wood, nice form---the second picture the form looks alive, and trying to decide if you are lunch

Lionel - I love the imagination in this piece! Looks like one of Walt Disney's animated characters! The natural edge provides a unique top edge but it is the shape of the feet that really grab my attention! Very nice work Lionel! Very nice!

Lionel, I really like this, it looks like a big mouth on legs, and it looks hungry...... Great job.

Very interesting, I like the combinations of color in the wood and the wavy natural edge.

[David E Keller]

Neat piece, Lionel! I love that the you placed the legs so that they are part of the sapwood providing contrast with the main part of the form.
