Once again Don Stephenson  has honored me with a gift of one of his special drawings.  One of the very first drawings he gave me was a little wizard, which I carved and gave to him.  In doing research for the carving of Gandalf, Don was very helpful with drawings.  A recent carving of Gandalf inspired Don to allow the Idea Monster within him to come up with a drawing of the WOOD BEE CARVER as a carving wizard who magically guides his carving knife to carve a likeness of Gandalf.  Don has captured a caricature likeness of me with his whimsical creativity.  The gift of his artistic ability guided by his creative genius is only surpassed by the generosity of his friendship.  Thank you Don for all your gifts in your art of friendship.
