Esmeralda and goat



This statue, Esmeralda with goat, was a custom commission. Hand carved wood with faux bronze finish. This was an exciting project because I didn't have **a picture to work from**, but several general idea photos that I put together to come up with this interpretation.


The statue measures just 2" (5cm) high. Carved from Jelutong wood.

  1. Excellent work!

    You must try carving wax someday so you can have metal castings made. Wax is a joy to carve and detail, lots of fun. Then more of us can have your special pieces like this one.

  4. If that was cast in metal and for sale at a reasonable price (I am poor) I would totally buy one. It really is beautiful.
