The "Old Man of The Woods" was born out of the find of an interesting piece of driftwood. It layed on my workshop bench for months before whispering to me in a dream what it wanted to be. All of the leaves are hancarved from stock pine as is the face. Then I added the copper details cut from sheet copper and then embossed. The eyes are green marbles which have a lovely eerie glow, as if he is always watching over you.

The Old Man of the Woods
The "Old Man of The Woods" was born out of the find of an interesting piece of driftwood. It layed on my workshop bench for months before whispering to me in a dream what it wanted to be. All of the leaves are hancarved from stock pine as is the face. Then I added the copper details cut from sheet copper and then embossed. The eyes are green marbles which have a lovely eerie glow, as if he is always watching over you.
Another piece of my art
This is a piece I made a few years ago, I call it "Bad Hair Day". It is a mixed media piece using carved and burned wood, wire, acrylic paint and hair rollers. I was inspired by Pablo Picasso's "Weeping Woman".
