And so it begins . . . Jiggy TV Halloween

Haven’t come up with a title for this carving yet.  Any suggestions?  I can see Clive improving every time he carves and I think this extreme pumpkin creature is his most awesome yet.

Clive created this carving for the folks at Jiggy TV.

Gearing Up for Halloween

And so it begins . . . pumpkin season is fast approaching.  In the meantime, Clive thought he’d try his hand at a squash first!

 

Watermelon Carving entitled “Sun Damage”

Clive slips in a few final watermelon carvings before pumpkin season begins. This one’s entitled “Sun Damage”.   This is what happens with too much exposure to the sun; a fervent desire to carve watermelons!

Samurai Warrior Watermelon Carving

Latest addition to the watermelon carvings, is the “Samurai Warrior” watermelon.

Watermelon and Pumpkin Carvings

Let’s do a quick recap of Clive’s carving in the past year or so since we started the site – he’s been on Global BC TV demonstrating his carving skills, at the Food & Sustenance Fair and carved with the big guys at Metrotown’s Monster Pumpkin show, to name a few of my fave moments.  To keep his name out there on the web, seems we have to do a lot of this blah, blahing, so forgive us if we’ve repeated ourselves a blog or two.  Anyway, hope you enjoy the site!

Here’s Clive newest extreme watermelon carving entitled ”Baboon Watermelon”
