South West Showcase Sculpture (un-named)

 I needed a base for this to stand on, using a piece of Tuart 50mm x 200mm x 1.2m. Tuart is an underestimated wood which I really like and it lent itself to this piece. I wanted a windswept look, 3 dimensional, the wind over the sand. This I carved using a Lancelot tool with an aggressive wheel. I refined this using gooseneck scrapers, finishing with 800 grit sandpaper. 

 
This sculpture stands on spines 8 and 9.
