prunus_carving

Hello again.
An example-case of carving on a Prunus Cerasifera with the untouched viewing side
before "the grind" and afterwords.
The tree itself is not a cracker-one, 'just an object of trial.
It had a dry truncpart from the base untill the top.
First I removed the dry bark with a coarse steelbrush in a powertool.
Then I did the carvings.
The wood of Prunus-species is nice to carv. 'Quiet hard and good to be bleeched with
lime-sulphur.
The design is not finished yet. The whiteness of the sublime parts is too unnatural bright,
but time and wether will give a humble patina to that.
'Hope you enjoy ...
