Had to post this work of art!!

This is actually a carving from a single block of Vermont sugar pine. Carved & then hand painted included the box. I've met Randall & seen other examples of his work. Posted it here to get the widest viewing. Don't want to direct link to his web site, so do a search for Randall Rosenthal .

I wonder if his inspiration for this came from the old Pearl Bailey song "Five Pound Box of Money".

Amazing work.

[Bill Huber]

That is just really something, I went to his site and looked at his other works.
He is a true craftsman and artist without question.

Thanks......

Interesting work and a talented man.
Not sure a sugar pine could grow in Vermont though?

Awesome work..!!!!!!!!!!

I can't even carve a crooked line straight!!!

[Sam Yerardi]

I've seen his work before and it is amazing.

[Chris Fierro]

I didn't believe that they were carvings. Seriously, I was wondering why pictures of still lives were being called carvings. Until I saw the in progress shots of the cutting board.

WOW!

[Jeff Mohr]

That is truly amazing!
