Material Alchemy - Austin Lillywhite

Here's the unfinished wood carving I did for material alchemy.
Wood has been so much fun to work with.

  1. I think this piece is actually incredible! As I've told you, it reminds me of the willow tree's face from Pocahontas :D I love the texture of the wood and its varied coloration of which you managed to enhance in this sculpture. I particularly think this piece is successful because you managed to use and play with the idea of wood's "wisdom"/"age" in portraying a wiser face (i'm presuming an elderly person maybe? i'm guessing). Bravo!
