Man o' the Forest...or Greenman
this is the breaking point of the limb that fell off of the cottonwood in an ice storm two winters ago... When I saw the pattern in the wood I was surprised.. I added three small details.. eyes, nosetip and lower lip...lol. I had to do some light sanding to remove the worst splinters...

Seriously, speaking as a (not very good/amateur) photographer, It would be interesting to see the 'faces' it would pull in different light angles/shades
Could offer some good shots.

failing all that, put it on eBay.

I'll be your publicity man Lori.
But first, where's the other half of it ?
Not still rooted is it ? (That'll be the tour stuffed then ! )

The rest of the branch is turned upside down, three branches make a tri-pod of sorts and my honeysuckle is leaning rather heavily upon it.. Will post a pic!! No worries ...tours welcome...hahaha

That is a very nice thought...Grammazoo! Thank you..I have to find a better place for him than leaning up against the fence! But where? food for thought.

I'd love him to be our Green Wizard. Amazing work you did with this, Lori.
