Here's one for all you whipper-snappers out there. I did this piece back in 1999 during my "closed eye" period. You can tell all my early carvings from the later ones by the eyes being just slits instead of being open. Don't ask why I did it that way.....I just did!

Old Gabby was always a favorite actor of mine. He made his first movie in 1929 and his last in 1950 for a total of 191 pictures. He played along side of all the greats....John Wayne, William Boyd, Randolph Scott, Roy Rogers and many, many more. He was a character you looked forward to seeing and never forgot. I almost wish I could take my teeth out so I could imitate his voice.

Love the "old" cowboy's and especally the real life look you give them.
ReplyDeleteI discovered the "full screen" (upper left)in your photo files. That is a great way to get real close up detail of your posted pictures. And a slide show too. If you viewers have not tried it, go for it and appreciate Lynn's work even more.
