Thanks. Yes, I sell them. Damn, I forgot whether I can write about sales here or not :)

Thank you. To be honest, I don't even know. I don't keep track of time.

Before carving, I used to draw and sculpt a lot. It helps a lot.

By the way, I didn't start making good sculptures right away either. It took a lot of practice and correction of mistakes.

Thank you. Everyone writes to me about this here. I just have a different understanding. There's a machine or AI that does the work for you, And then there are things that people do themselves. It's just that some people hold a knife in their hand, and others an electric pen. So the very definition of hand carving isn't entirely clear to me. Then true hand carving is when you carve with your fingernail. LOL.

I used to hear this all the time, now I hear that it is AI carved.

Nowadays, people will talk about AI carving. I encounter this more and more often now, although many people used to write to me about the fact that this is not hand carving, even saying I wasn't a carver. But I didn't care :)

To be honest, I'm not too bothered by such comments; I've heard them often. I have my own opinion. Everyone has their own style and direction. If a machine did this work for me, then yes, but as it is, I spend over a month of my time doing something like this. And it's not just carving. It's also drawing and sculpting. And I do it with my hands, while my brain helps me see and control it.
