fantastic progression Gabriel!

Love these trees and LOVE your styling. Great work on the carving as well. They lend themselves to hollows etc.

Thanks for posting.

Fantastic what patience and skill. Your little brother looks to be a cool kid. Why don't you put a small buddha in the hole in the trunk? I must admit I like figurines. Some don't, the Chinese do.

Well done that man. :clap: :clap:

I really like the "style" you have adopted for this, I think it suits it well. Also appreciate the progression, congratulations.
