Pouting Pete Carving

“Pouting Pete”

Pouting Pete pouts about everything he lives without. He’s certainly smug, with no gratitude, Mr. Pete’s in real need of a new attitude. Neither heroic, nor stoic, nor slightly ecstatic, Pouting Pete on his feet is Mr. dramatic.

11" tall x 6 1/2" wide x 2 1/2" thick

Carved in a Hemlock knot…. I used a dark brown acrylic paint to deepen the crevices, diluted for shallow wrinkles, and diluted a bit more to shade.

I carved Pete in a single piece of knot using tools similar to those of a dentist. Some of the little bits used for this fella’ are as thin as needles :) Hope you like him :)
