Default Native American.. Apache

This is the first american indian i have done. This is from a basswood roughout by Mark Gargac that my wife bought me for Christmas. I am happy with the way it turned out. Painted with acrylics and finished with satin lacuer and oil.

Thanks for looking as always.

Corey

WOW!........Corey there's not enough words in my vocabulary to describe that carving. The carving, the painting I'd say that's a 10 for sure.
Thanks for sharing

Wow is right! I thought this was much larger until I noticed the bottle stopper cork on the bottom, and it took a long time for me to pick up on that..just admiring the carving and painting.
