Absolutely beautiful energy! Unimaginable talent and unique creativity! I wish you nothing but success and happiness!

Jonas, I think you should carve a dragon....your work is beautfully magical!! Loved them !

Asher is an incredible piece! The delicacy with which you carved him is extremely aesthetically pleasing, drawing you into the centre of the piece while the background draws you back out again. It’s like you created a piece that emphasizes both the forest AND the trees. Amazing work!

I am glad they all sold. Every artist needs to pay their bills. I love the plank idea, you should think about crafting a set to be sold as one piece to be the focus of a wall installation. Good luck, rooting for you.

That oil reveal is always incredible, the wood color was so rich on these ones! Gorgeous work as always.

They’re all such beautiful pieces, how’re we supposed to choose a favourite. Thank you so much. I look forward to seeing more x❤

They are all gorgeous..Ayla is so majestic, Asher seems to have a look directly into the sky and Myra has a gently smile while floating in the surrounding wave. Thanks for sharing

They are all absolutely stunning, but I gotta say Asher is just something different. It's something about the balance between wood and empty space there that just works so well. I also love the asymmerty that gives variation and direction without breaking the shape. It really feels like it's painting a picture or scenery, more than the other pieces

All of these are so beautiful, Jonas. I can't choose a favorite, I love them all. And it always looks like magic when you apply the oil. One thing I find less than ideal is the little bear's cute paws are turned toward the wall, but then I kind of feel like there isn't really a perfect solution there (the idea of the sculpture is it's looking up at the sunset, so it makes sense that you'd want to see the head). But you know, if that's the only remark that can be made, you can conclude you're doing pretty well 😉
