| | Re: a carved left handed man Taht is a very good piece. i'm not brave enough to carve a hand, they are so complex and beatiful and you did great. But most of all, i really like the concept of your work, is it really metal or just looks like? |

| | Re: a carved left handed man That's quite a piece of work. I see hints of what your pointing out in the palm. I'm still taken by the hand carving itself with what appears to be a sort of bionic look. Well they say art is in the eye of the beholder so we all see something different. The wood appears to be butternut perhaps?

| | Re: a carved left handed man boy, that rates really high on the way too cool chart! You say no faces, but I see faces. I see a very incredible shadowy side shot of a woman, almost like a chris angle moment.

| | Re: a carved left handed man WOW, very interesting and well done piece of work lots of imagination and very unique. I see a womans hand and not just because of the long thumb nail. I say womans hand because of it's smallness. Just my take.
