On Saturday I finally got the Ark finished with the final job of getting the rope around the railing posts.
I made a glass display case for the Ark - am happy as to how it turned out.
The Ark is for sale.

This blog changed from a daily blog to a blog to celebrate the folk art of Kerras Jeffery, as well as his reproduction furniture and other projects. His studio & shop closed in 2017 following his passing.

Noah's Ark - Part 11
Finally finished my last carvings this morning and started painting the

tails.

Noah's Ark - Part 10
I had a good day of carving again.!
I was done carving birds but then I came up with an idea with old ear rings, so had to do four more birds.

Noah's Ark - Part 9
This is week three working on Noah's Ark - I'm hoping to have the Ark done by the end of the week.
I mounted the animals i had painted this morning and started carving out more animals again.
The killer whale i used a piece of antique caribou antler for the back fin.
The beaver and skunks I used the ends of folk handles for the tail. The other end of the folk i used for the antler for the moose.
