 A Note from Steve: As a Dad, Papa, and Game Warden I have encountered many situations involving children. Many of those situations are downright funny, others very serious and yes even a few a little sad. Whatever the case maybe I hope you enjoy this collection of poems…I hope they bring a smile to your face…or even a joyful tear to your eye... Since these poems came to me in the middle of the night and the 1st I titled “God’s Gift”, I guess that explains how I feel about this collection. |
I also have been recently approved as a "Juried Member" with Best of Missouri Hands an artisans group here in Missouri.

Feathers, and 3 Feathers Inspirations

By request I am now carving butterflies. I am doing 2 sizes 2.5" and 3" and 3 different styles. So far I am painting them in colors my wife Sandy advises may go with ladies clothing. If you have any questions please give me a call or send me an e-mail.
I
have been power carving for the last 10 years. I started carving
½ size ducks and a master carver told me to remember that “those birds
are carved 1 feather at a time.” So, I decided to try to carve one
feather. I began by carving turkey feathers. Old oak barn board
seemed like a natural fit to display them. Then I added oak and maple
leaves, mushrooms, arrowheads and shotgun shells. Mother Nature is
full of feathers so I started doing speculum feathers from the puddle
ducks and different game birds soon followed. Now I carve the feathers
of all the game birds, ducks all the species of turkeys, song birds,
hawks, owls, and my favorite the immature Golden Eagle. Since many
of these feathers are illegal to possess a wood carving is a great
way to enjoy their beauty. I also began carving elk and whitetail
deer antlers to use as gun racks.
