Default Southwestern Indian motif...Acoma
6 1/2 x 6 1/2 on Basswood. It needs a staining. I think I'll brush on some acrylic mixed with warm water. The staining always seems to be a problem since I'm allergic to most of the stuff!

Nice carving Burtoni. Reminds me of the west coast style of carving.

Acoma-Sky City one of the nicest side trips that my wife and I have ever taken. So very interesting, plus we picked up some nice vases there.
