MC AND HIS "LITTLE PEOPLE"

I have been very lax at writing this particular post!   Many, many of MC's Fans have asked me to do it!  Finally, here it is!!!!!

A few years ago, MC, decided to try his "hand" at wood carving!  He Googled some websites and did a lot of research.   After his wood, knives and special gloves arrived, he began what has become a very popular hobby.  He has many "fans" looking at his creations, in awe!

 His first two attempts were the following.



Soon after these masterpieces were completed, he decided to add some "Personality" to his figures!

This piece was in done with MC and Me in mind! 
 My "bust" is in his dreams!

Now, he got very creative, and did pieces with props!  Pieces which depicted him doing activities that he enjoys!!

 This past month, before we moved, our neighbor asked MC to do one especially for her husband.  MC had worked with Rudy for years on special Committees and they were great buddies!  Rudy also was instrumental in putting together the Community Garden in SunCity Peachtree.  In thanks they dedicated a bench in his honor!!!
