Jimothy Meets the 4th Kind
Joshua Shumate
A raccoon and a trash can. A match made in heaven, right? Jimothy wandered down his favorite alley hoping to find something tasty in a trash can. Would he find day-old donuts? Rotten fruit? Maybe some Chinese takeout? He hopped on top of the first trash can, and something doesn't feel right. The can was heavier than normal, and... THE LID IS OPENING. Jimothy lurks cautiously, hoping that he can get away from whatever is in the trashcan before it finds him.
About: My name is Josh and I have been carving for approximately 3 years. I started with the Racine Carving Club at Riverbend in Racine, WI with Flexcut knives and no idea on what I was doing. With time, practice, and inspiration from great minds such as Dywoodcarving, Johnny the Layton, and Doug Linker, I've gotten to a point where I don't just carve, I innovate. I am surrounded on social media, primarily on TikTok, by wonderful individuals such as Rob, Mercy, Nicole, Evan, Nico, Jeff, and Cody (to name a handful) who push me to do more with my carving tools. Thank you for the opportunity to enter into this contest, and I look forward to seeing the results.
