  • Elk In Meadow Wood Cuts

    A magnificant elk stands proudly in a sun-dappled meadow, surrounded by towering evergreens that sway gently in the mountain breeze. His coat is a rich, earthy brown, sleek and powerful, catching the golden light of the late afternoon sun. His antlers rise in an intricate, sweeping crown—broad, symmetrical, and majestic—like a living sculpture carved by nature itself.

    Behind him, rugged mountain peaks loom, their snow-dusted caps glowing softly against a crisp blue sky. Wisps of mist cling to the lower slopes, hinting at the cool, pristine air. Wildflowers pepper the meadow in hues of violet, gold, and white, and the grass shimmers with a soft green vitality. The elk’s stance is noble—chest lifted, eyes alert, ears pricked toward distant sounds—commanding the landscape with calm authority, as if he is both guardian and spirit of this wild, untamed place.

    Antlered elk, wapiti in silhouette poses in a moonlit meadow. Wood laser ornament for attractive conversation piece.

    A friend suggested I start a catalog designs so I’ve been busy, busy, busy creating a variety of designs to display on Karma Carriers web site. 

    Currently I am working on designs for Halloween and other fall holidays such as Day of the Dead skulls and skeletons, witches and black cats galore to prepare for the October showing.

    In other words, the images in this catalog are examples of current work of various types and I will have much more for future designs, but for now, it’s All Hallowed Eve all the time till November.

    As usual, feel free to contact me for special requests. I will drop everything and help.
