Today I received a couple more wood carvings. This time faces which have been sculpted in bamboo roots. I used them to break up the plain wooden walls of the summerhouse and my shed:
I love the facial expressions and will probably invest in a couple more in the New Year.
funky! sort of scary, but sort of cool, too!
ReplyDeleteTWG. Probably more scary in a close up photograph than in real life.
DeleteThe faces are really neat! Amazing work.
ReplyDeleteBonnie. I do admire people who can visualise and create something from a lump of wood or stone.
DeleteWonderful natural texture and character.
ReplyDeleteThey have Wilma.
DeleteI rather like those John. Very different.
ReplyDeleteKeith. If I had enough money I would buy all they have.
DeleteThese are brilliant.
ReplyDeleteThey do show real character Adrian.
DeleteI love these . . . . but, they are faces - so I think you should give them each a name! Very interesting!

Their facial expressions seem to look a little 'board'! Sorry... ;) Great sculptures. You have quite a wonderful back garden with water features, Birdy Bistro, hedgehog houses, sculptures, summer house etc. Lots of textural elements and interest. Have a merry one!
ReplyDeleteGlo. It's a good job you only see the bits I want you to see ;) About a third could well be described as being on the wild side though I prefer to call it natural. That's probably what makes it attractive to wildlife.
