Hello and good morning all,
Today I'd like to share a relief carving I carved awhile back.

The moonlit moose was a fun piece to carve.

I sketched it on the slab first, then started scratching away.

I actually took about 50 or so pictures throughout the process so I could put together this stop motion gif...

I hope you enjoyed seeing what I saw, if so feel free to upvote and reblog. I love what I do and I'm happy to share here on Peakd. More to come so please do stay tuned, thanks for looking.

Jon

Thank you for sharing the full process of creating your "moonlit moose". It's fascinating to see how it evolved from a simple slab to a detailed carving.
The stop motion GIF is a great addition to see the transformation step by step. I’m sure many will appreciate the effort you’ve put into documenting this project.
Looking forward to seeing more in the future!
