Mandarin Drake
Size: Lifesize Medium: Basswood with Acrylic Details Private Collection This life size carving of a preening Mandarin drake is an example of Dave's finest realistic work. Every detail is attended with patience and skill, from its balanced pose to its finest irridescent plummage. Layers of painstakingly inserted wood "feathers" and delicate washes of paint wrap this carving in life-like beauty and lend it the unique dignity of the Mandarin drake itself. |
