Description
my most recent work.
a torso following the natural shape of the piece of wood. it is wood of the golden chain (Laburnum anagyroides), which is very rare and only available in small pieces. on the other hand it is very looked after, as it is extremely beautiful, has a prominent difference between the nearly white sapwood and the dark, highly grained true wood.
I had this piece laying around for about ten years: so, it was dry.
I did follow the natural shape, but cut the piece in a way that I left parts of the sapwood. It does not nearly turn out as the actual pice. I will try upload better shots later.
entire length is about 65cm.
