I'm happy with him, but the hours in the travel and everything else, and the fact that you're so immersed in it, you can't look away to do anything else. Yeah, for a while, that's the big deal. I really want to talk to somebody back there and see what I can come up with. But again, I'd rather do a master's level work. I've already got a bachelor's in from young age, but I'd rather do a master's level something. Well, you can do your master's, and see, your master's could very easily be developing a video thing. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, yes. Okay. The question again was, what do you hope to leave by your artwork? Clearly, one of the things I hope to leave by the number of pieces that I have done is not only for my children and my grandchildren, and all the members of my family, to know that
it was me who did these pieces and these churches and created the stations of the Crossport, the Cathedral and certain pieces that are in different books, but also to let them know that as a woman, it is just as important for women to create great pieces and to leave the legacy there for other women, for young women to know that you can be a woodcarver. It is not that difficult. You can express yourself creatively, and I would like to be able to leave the thought with younger people that how important it is to perpetuate the traditions that have been developed over the years, and no matter how you do it, whether it's in art or in teaching or in whatever way you can contribute, I think it's very important to do that.
I have always felt that if I don't do any more major projects, the stations of the Cross have made it very easy for me to feel that this is one of my finest works, and I hope to do more, but nonetheless, I will have already left an imprint that other people can say, hey, this is something I think is beautiful, and I think that primarily I would love to do something like that, and let them know that, hey, you can do something like that. These are things that are available to all of us, and you just have to learn how to express yourself creatively. That's great. I don't know if it's staffers. Thank you.

The blizzard comes kind of in and out of the frame. noodles. But I like to do it with her until I do some knife work.
The knife work is usually at the end to put in all the detail and then I got to change the whole shop around to do sit back over here. Okay, ready, let's do it, cut it.
Are you ready, could I ask you to do something? Can you put it flat again, kind of yeah, flat about like there and then from there actually prop it up and work on it, okay, and I have the other one that's finished so if you want to take that one and I can put some putty on it because the one over there is more finished
than this one, except here, let's keep on doing this for just a bit, okay, time to cut the piece of Ruosh. I'm going to put it in a bit and I'm going to split it in half.
