Default Holley Twin Woodspirits

Well not really Woodspirits, but more like green people and not really twins cause one is going to be a woman, but it is Holley.

This is a branch fork I have had for some time, and finally got around to carving. It is fairly small, 3" tall, and the branches are about 3/4" in dia. The face started is about 3/8" across, so all the detail on the leaves is done using magnifcation. See what yall think!

I am yet to try putting leaves on any of my wood spirits...but I'm anxious to give it a try. Look forward to seeing the female face. There's not many of us out there carving this gender as a woodspirit.
