I bet there is some hand shock in that lower limb.
:bigsmyl:
Cool...
Most interesting!
That's pretty neat.
I remember years ago that Dryad, when they made all natural bows, would bring something similar to shows to decorate their booth.
Tillering is so much easier when there's only one limb .... Lol. Very cool.
Very nice work.
I dig that dude. Very creative.
Very nice work! Bottom limb looks stiff though.
That's something. That is unique. Jawge
Great idea, nicely done
As someone who has made a living for 45 years in the design business, one way or another (signpainter/airbrush until the computer took over), might I be so bold as to suggest making the transition from tree to bow a lot sharper - maybe even dig into the base so that the bow is a bit like 'the sword in the stone'?
Send it to the Guggenheim.
Looks great, nice Art work.... :thumbsup:
Now that is art!
It surely is a beaut.
Maybe it's a better representation of the gradual process than what I suggested previously.
Very artistic indeed. :thumbsup:
Joe what inspired you to do this? We all know you are the Sage Osage whisperer, but wow I can't stop peeking in to look at that lovely creation.
