Check out that carved antler! It is awesome! It reminds me of those amazing mammoth tusks that Chinese artists will spend decades carving into elaborate scenes.
Also, the artist … standing beside a life-sized grizzly that he carved … holding his baby son? I am getting serious The Strange Land vibes here. Oh, wait … most of you haven’t read it yet … soon, soon.
This art is so local that I might be able to visit it in person. If I do, I’ll give you a report.

That’s beautiful work. I find good representational art so refreshing. I think it’s because in my day to day work, I’m continually fighting for the simplest hand-crafted details, and always being asked to accept subpar craftsmanship or approximate our intent with off-the-shelf products.
I would love to incorporate something like this into a building design. Even to have him carve something that we could use to make a mold for a cast stone element. Thanks for sharing.

I can think of a dozen things I’d like to order (Scattering Trilogy Swag!!!), but I know I can’t afford him.
