Tiny Standing Spirit
River Red Gum (Eucalyptus camaldulensis)
Viewing a documentary depicting primeval figures provided the inspiration for this exhibit, imagination then took over. After turning, the spirit shapes were drawn, cut out, shaped, sanded and painted. Tiny Standing Spirit was turned from a piece of River Red Gum fence post that was made redundant and rescued from a firewood pile and shows exquisite fiddleback grain. Finished with Danish oil.
