Follow-through: To carry an act, project, or intention to completion; pursue fully.
Well, up to 'til this week I had not followed-through on any of my carvings. Sure, I had finished carving them, but I knew deep down that placing each of them in an old shoebox wasn't really the end of the project.
After sitting down with my Dremel and paints and working away until I was finished,
I looked at the little creatures 'looking' back at me and I wondered why I hadn't done this sooner!
Without further ado, let me properly introduce...
Clem & Clara:
The Hedgehogs:
"Maury" The Mud-lovin' Hog:
and last but not least...
The Pig "Perry":
I guess it was easy to just keep adding to the slowly growing collection in that old shoebox. I was proud of what I was accomplishing in this new-to-me medium but they didn't come 'alive' to me until I had properly completed them. As soon as these critters were painted and had eyes I fell for them in the same way I fall for the critters I create on paper in my illustrations!
I can't wait to discover what mischief they will get up to and what adventures they will have!
