FALSE ALBACORE carving
This meticulously crafted wood carving is the product of patience and remarkable skill. The artist strives for a faithful scientific interpretation of the fish in regards to form and coloring, and the result is a stunning creation that fairly wiggles with life. Carving and the many hours of ensuing painting are performed in stages using natural daylight. Each piece is created one at a time and then mounted on a richly grained, hand-planed wood plaque with the species name hand-scripted on a hardwood nameplate. It arrives ready for wall hanging and signed by the artist. Because each is created painstakingly by hand, no two are exactly alike. Measures 15 x 28". Ships directly from the artist.
