well it seems like every artist finds a nitch to fill.. something they are good at .. or at least enjoys enough to keep doing it!...for me that nitch was found in the dirty, stinky, greasy, smelly, dusty, and rewarding field of bone carvings!! ill be honest.. i didn't wake up and say that i wanted to start carving bones!!! in fact it was a few deviants who inspired me to start!! including! MaX-DooM and GhostSender




the piece that really got me started was this

this piece is probably one of the most beautiful bone carvings i have seen! the curves and complex shape seem to flow into one! its this piece that got me started down the path. after finding out what it took and what to do.. well i started .. ill have to admit.. i could really do with out cleaning the bone.. but its part of the experience.. no matter how disgusting and time consuming! while i do live every one of my carvings i realize they are crude and still need work!! but since i have only just started and there arent any books or other people to tell me or show me how to do this stuff.. i think im doing pretty good!! however i want to eventually work my way up to making pieces like the one that inspired me every time!! i guess it just takes practice!!
