I went to a local bookstore and bought a copy of the latest “Wood Carving Illustrated” magazine and saw a really neat 5 Minute Owl that was shown step by step.
I grabbed a small pocket knife and set out to see if I was capable of following the illustration with any success. I was amazed that my first attempt turned out to be fairly close to the finished product in the magazine. Here is a picture of the first attempt and then a picture of a 6th or 7th attempt from memory.
