Up date on carving. This carving was look similar to the Troll shown in the book.
My carving looks like an abstract of a Troll.
I have completed a portion of my wood burning on this piece.
I used a soft blue art pencil over the burning. I then buffed the blue into the crakes of the burning gaps.

I find all 3 arts relaxing as it allows me to channel my depression, pain and PTSD into my work. Using paint next.

I hope this leads other vets to the arts.

I will post after paint has been applied
