A huge Thank You to those who helped out during my recovery the last few months. If you'd like to support what I do in the shop through my paypal (paypal.me/dadamsen), I really appreciate it!
On November 5, 2020 before sunrise, I was climbing a tree to my deer stand when I lost footing and fell about 25 feet to the ground. I woke up 20 minutes later thinking I had taken a nap under the tree for no apparent reason. I soon realized my back and right hand were broken, specifically my L1 vertebra burst fractured and my right index metacarpal broke in 5 pieces. I was able to walk about 100 yards out of the woods to my friend's waiting canoe and was taken to the hospital. God was very merciful. I could have become paralyzed or worse, but I am slowly getting back on my feet and hoping to make the best of 2021!

Amazing that you can take a piece of wood that 95% of people would throw on the firewood pile & think nothing of it & turn it into a work of Art. Absolutely stunning. Don from South Aust.

This was outstanding. I was freaking out the entire time watching the sketchy parts but I'm glad you managed so well. It's an outstanding piece. I would sell that for way too much money and I would love it for the rest of my existence if I owned it. It's a truely inspiring piece of art.
