Recreating How The Grinch Stole Christmas

I’m a chainsaw artist from Kentucky and every year in my hometown we have a Festival of Trees at our local historic Paramount Arts Center. This year I tasked myself with trying to recreate the Dr Seuss version of How the Grinch stole Christmas. We won first place and best in show. I thought I’d share some of our progress pictures of the process.
