Description

This carving is loosely based on an antique asian figurine. I of course dropped the robe off her shoulder... and in order to keep all the wood, I made her hair bunch up on top. Her shoulder, face and chest, and one foot are filled and sanded, her robe is left rough with some tool marks for contrast. Eastern white pine log carving, 76" tall by about 22" Dia. She will season a bit more before final finishing... and part of me wants to handle the eyes differently so she may be back for... improvement!

These photos do not do this sculpture justice. This Quan Yin is much more beautiful than the pix show.
