Title: My very own Mariah Post by: Vandrefalk on 28-Sep-10, 04:07:59 PM Some of you will recall a couple of years ago, Bob was trying to arrange to have a carving done of Mariah. Well, we finally did it! A wonderful artist in Rising Sun, MD (who usually does ducks and things) was able to do what we think is a very good likeness of our Queen, So now I have my very own Mariah -- I often look at her and send good wishes to the real one! Here is the link to some pictures -- enjoy!

Title: Re: My very own Mariah Post by: Bobbie Ireland on 29-Sep-10, 06:07:39 AM I would so love to see your Mariah! But Big Mac does not like that "share" system. (And I don't like to yell at him, such is his sensitivity...)
So - any chance you could put up a few pix on the Forum as Jpegs? (Big Mac does not mind these.) Thanks! Title: Re: My very own Mariah Post by: Bird Crazy on 29-Sep-10, 07:22:28 AM yes please because my computer does not like the new Kodak site either for some reason I can see the first picture but that is it I can never get it to go to the rest. :confused:

How splendid! You know, in that first pic, if you had put the sculpture outside, it could be the real Mariah. (If you see what I mean...?) You must be thrilled. What an amazing sculptor. Oh - and thanks for taking the time to post. (I hate to be left out!)
