I am 70 years old and never made a drawing other than a schematic drawing. I retired in 2010 and bought an airbrush from Hobby Lobby with a 40 % coupon that brought it to about $60. I painted this “BIRD OF PARADISE” and In my wildest dreams I never thought This would look this good. My wife encouraged me to do more. A QUOTE FROM DALE CARNIGIE “IF IT CAN BE CONCIVED, IT CAN BE ACHIEVED” I have since painted and sold about 100 paintings and about 30 or 40 that I gave for gifts. 2 days ago I I saw your snake cane and it is the coolest. I thought I might something simple (all my knives are razor sharp and it helps.)And I made this teak turtle refrigerator magnet. I never will think I could get to your level but if I hadn’t tried I wouldn’t have a turtle and I am going to try to increase my difficulty and try a new hobby. Your work is over the top! Thank you for the inspiration. I am looking for some more great pieces of art.
That's great Bruce! It makes my day when somebody tells me I've inspired them to carve! I haven't been carving that many years myself. It's just something I wanted to learn to do, and I kept working at it, and I'm still working at it! I would like to be able to see some of your artwork if you'd like to share it! My e-mail adress is mike.stinnett.art@gmail.com. I've been uploading exclusive videos on Patreon.com for those who support my work and would like to learn a little more about what I do, in case you're interested. Thanks for the comment and I hope you have a happy new year!
The bond between you and Pearl is amazing. It's so clear that she wants to be close to you, share the work, keep Daddy protected. Amazing. I enjoyed watching you create another piece of stunning art.
Your work is exceptional. You can even inspire someone who knows nothing about carvings and paintings like me to be like you. Btw, where income from, the deers would've been on barbeque skewers in no time. Glad to see them roam freely
My god this is beautiful! Not only is your craftsmanship astounding but the wonderful Oregon scenery makes me glad I live there too! You sir are amazing! And I love your work! -T
I feel that I know and love the place you live in, through your wonderful videos, you`ve done some really good shots of the wildlife that stays round you, and they appear to trust you and Pearl. You make the rattlesnakes seem so real, I hope you don`t pick a real one by mistake!!!
Thank you for sharing your life with us. As a carver one who has never attempted to carve life into a piece of dead wood could never understand what it takes to achieve such wonderful works such as Yours'. Keep on sharing with us, Your a very special individual.
This, is an amazing piece of art, and fantastic to watch the work developing, anybody with a right mind would cherish something like this. At the time of writing this, 77 people, have hit the dislike button, I just can’t understand this?? This is amazing craftsmanship and really beautifully done, good on ya!! My wife and I really enjoy your videos, a bit of calm at the end of the week. Thank you.
Friend, your videos are fabulous, relaxing, inspiring ... I envy you, even your little dog is great. Thank you for relaxing with your art and your landscapes, I really appreciate it.
Hi Mike nice to see you and pearl hope you and your family are all well going to get the book well my brother stay safe and well and God bless you and your family see you on the next one thanks Brian
It looks great when the snakes wrap around, but just the snake by itself is a nice change of pace. I think this is one of my favorite pieces you've made
amazing landscape and your work...wow...you alway impress me!!!! That one look like it would be alive....wow again, you are a great artist, thanks for sharing you beautiful work my friend, take care, Taro
Wow, mate I can't stop watching your work, I'm from country Australia and the way you put the videos together are almost as artful as what you produce. So peaceful and Pearl is the perfect company. You're a bloody genius my friend, best I've seen on UA-cam to date, by far.
I love your videos. Not only for the carving but the mood, the music and your inner peace which they transmit. When I come home after a long busy day it makes me happy if I see that you've uploaded a new video. Thank you! :)
Another stunning piece of craftsmanship. I do think Western Diamondback Rattlers have pretty faces with the beautiful pattern over their eyes. They almost look demure. Lol I love the way Pearl sits on your lap while you are doing the work, and it was so funny to see her tearing after the deer. Please enjoy the rest of your week. Kind regards. Liz.
Thank you very much Liz! Almost every time I'm out there carving, Pearl wants up on my lap and she just sits there and guards the fort while I'm carving! She seems to enjoy it even though she gets sawdust all over her! Hope you have a great week too!
I stumbled across your videos and I'm so glad I did I have watched many of your videos and your craftsmanship is just amazing a God given talent your eye for detail makes your carvings look real and the way you blend your colors after you burn the wood is icing on the cake. God bless you and Pearl and keep up the Great work looking forward to many more videos
davvero incredibile anche questo lavoro un opera d'arte! veramente fantastico ogni volta che vedo i tuoi lavori rimango a bocca aperta! devi avere una grande passione per i serpenti per conoscerli così nei dettagli. il contesto e la natura meravigliosa dove tu abiti completano il tutto....è poi io quando vedo il tuo cagnolino.... è troppo bello! chiamo sempre mio figlio per guardarlo con lui! ancora tanti complimenti Mike continua a farci sognare!
UNBELIEVABLE WORK MY FRIEND. YOUR PATIENCE AND ARTISTRY ARE A TESTAMENT TO YOUR PATIENCE AND YOUR GENERATION!! This is all but a lost art today. The youth of today know nothing of the feeling that comes from creating something beautiful with your hands!! I'm 43 and unfortunately I don't have your talent but I'm very old fashioned in a lot of my beliefs. I wish I could teach my children this kind of artistry. Continue your works my friend and I will continue to watch and share. I would love to buy one!!! If I sent you my info would that be possible!!!
The music the narration and ofcourse the Art of carving the snake feels like i am watching a Quentin Tarantino directed documentary. Its really awesome.
I stumbled upon your videos today, and I am in awe of your outstanding craftsmanship. The clips you add in to your videos, besides just showcasing your work, are a very nice touch. With love, a new fan. 🙂
I'm in Boy Scouts and you've inspired me to get into woodwork and carving, i really, really, really like you and your art. I made sure to share you and your videos with my friends and family : ) keep up the AMAZING work!
Thank you so much for your videos, I love to watch them. You are so very talented and I love the quality in all your work. Thanks again for taking the time to make your videos

Дай бог Вам здоровья и долгих лет жизни ,смотрел много Ваших роликов,великолепная работа,красивая природа и съёмки, успехов и продолжения Вашего творчества.👍👍👍👍👍
The rattling leaves while working on a rattlesnake was a brilliant touch. Glad your oldish videos are still available to us late comers!

Shape one from wire and attach it into a soldering iron. Most irons have detachable heads. Just screw the wire in.
Good for you my man. Well done.
