Hi Everyone, here is a portrait of my grandad when he was in the navy. It is the only picture that I have known to exist of him as I never knew him. He passed away years before I was born. I thought that it would be a good tribute to capture this in wood. I will see how the family reacts to this one. Any comments or suggestions are welcomed as always. Steve
