My Langara Reconciliation Carving Journey: Feb 2017- #Carving4Reconciliation Progress

Well what do you do when it snows...and you can't make it to class because there are buses stuck everywhere. You work at home.

We have had lots of snow and mucky weather lately so I have been very busy.

These are my results so far. I am going to make a video of the process but just thought I would get this posted. Tired from all the work but feeling energetic and accomplished because the sun is out!

Sorry, I should do a better job with the photos...it's hard to match and in person they look much different as the reflections are totally different depending on the lighting and in the photos I am trying to show the reflections..but then they look a bit tacky...so it's a tough call. Wait for the videos..then you will see. I will try to get them done tonight!

Starting with first 3 carvings I did last semester https://mylangaratrccarvingjourney.blogspot.ca/2016/12/carving-tool-accomplishments-1st.html you can see my latest carving at the bottom.

Title: The Cocoon and the Moon

Title: The Moon and the Butterfly

These two carving are supposed to look aged...I destressed them but it's difficult to see in these photos. I will post more photos later.

Title: The Moon and Cocoon

Title: Women and Children are Sacred

Here is a video I made of my carvings.
