How to Color a Wood Carving Without Paint

[@robertarnold9594]

Sir, you are truly talented! However, what's more impressive is that in a world that seems so chaotic, impatient and busy all the time, you seem to have mastered patience and time management to perfection. That is an art in itself. Thank you for your videos!

[@StinnettSticks]

Thank you very much, Robert!

[@Charles.Spillman]

Mr. Stinnett you are very talented and skilled at what you do, I'm not to good at carving but I do carpentry I'm not to bad with it, but you have a gift. WIth stuff such as your walking sticks I wish there was a way I could get one for my grandfather for Father's day

[@mortuaryartist]

He will love whatever you make . promise x

[@toddgipe1748]

I really like how the achievement of color has honored the wood. The combination of burning, staining, and torch paste is remarkable!

[@justinwatson3021]

“I’ve learned to take my time and be patient. I know that raccoon is in there somewhere”. Everyone around me talks about patience. Though when Mike says this, I finally truly understand patience. Love your work. You are an amazing artist. I hope to one day be as patient and as talented in my craft as you.

@@StinnettSticks Sir, as I have said before, your God-given talent is unmatched. You might just be among the best this world has to offer at what you do here. Anyone who has a piece of your work in their collection is a very lucky person indeed. I’d pay whatever you wanted to have that raccoon with your name on it. It’s flawless. Each stroke intentionally placed, just like our Creator’s handiwork in us in Ephesians 2:10.

[@itsok2bwhiteendanti-whiteh548]

@@StinnettSticks I had no idea you sold your work, especially your walking sticks! I’d rather have one of those. I see the Eagle has just been sold. Do you make walking sticks by request? I know the Founder/CEO of the Creation Museum and Ark Encounter in northern Kentucky, and sent him gifts before. He would be beyond blessed to have something that carried the theme of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden being tempted by the serpent. He just turned 70, and might need a walking stick as he gets up there. I’d love to do that for him ❤️.

[@jeanblythe1595]

Oh this hit the spot, Mike, and you did such a fine new way of coloring it. This is one of my most favorite pieces you have ever done. This is the sort of thing that I can't resist at a craft show. It's a sculpture, and a functional box all at once. I love it :-D I have a little raccoon plushie that I've had for 35 years at least, and it named itself Astro, which is not a name I would ever have thought of. This looks so much like Astro in a new medium that I actually blurted his name!!! Which is not a suggestion to name him that, as everyone has their own ideas. I hope you had a fine Easter and are enjoying Spring!!! God watch over you and your quality control manager, Pearl :-D

[@StinnettSticks]

Thank you, Jean! I'm glad you like how it turned out! It was fun to experiment with the torch paste. I'll be using it on other projects for sure. It's good to hear from you. I hope you're doing well. QC says hi!
