I finished carving this cowboy from a rough-out, and painting it this week. I painted the carving with acrylic paints, and then sprayed with a coat of shellac.

The cowboy is not riding a horse, and the rifle was not to ward off cattle rustlers but likely to finish off an unsuspecting Ground Hog! In the backroads of our county some of the farms the barns are across the road from the cow pasture! Therefore after milking time they need to cross the road. I decided to take advantage of this and take some photos.
