"Relic"
Hello once again I was able to put the finishing touches on my first piece for 2024. I have been showing progress on this piece as I made it. Made from Maple first turned hollow on the lathe, it finished at 7" x 7". Then the pattern was hand drawn and hand carved, 21 Kokopelli's in all. Some pyrography was added for shading then alcohol inks were added for coloring the hand carved leather straps, the final finish is satin lacquer.

Always wondered what it would be like to have the talent to do something even close to your craft, over the top as usual.
