Kansas City Gold!!

The Kansas City Woodcarving at the John Knox Center in Lee's Summit proved to be a great sucess. As you can see by the photo we were lucky enough to bring home some of the available loot. Here's a list of just what won what:
-
The General- 1st Caricature Bust
Leprechan- 2nd Caricature Bust
Texas Skip- 1st Caricature Single Figure
Tequila Sunrise -1st Caricature Scene
No Swimming- 1st Caricature Group, 3rd Best of Show
-
To cap off the event we even managed to win the Best Display ribbon. The only downside was our entering Johnny Reb into the wrong category which resulted in him being completely passed over. Oh well, we certainly can't complain and there are always other shows where he can try his luck.
-
While I'm here I'll mention that we finally were able to capture all the photos from the previous Gallery so I'm in the process of uploading them to the new one. These albums will appear at the end of the Picasa album list. Unfortunately, all the descriptive captions were lost in the process. But not to worry, over time I'm sure we'll cover anything lost as I complete new carvings, at least I hope so.

So, give me a day to unpack, pick the accumulated ticks off the horses and I'll get back to that Steer project.

  5. Lynn,
    Excellent job! If you keep that up you may have to build an add-on to hold all the loot you continue to garner. Congrats!
