Title

Seeing A Jewel Hang on Ghastly Nights

Date of Completion
June 2004

Wood
New York State Hard Maple (Curly)

Carving Difficulty
Very difficult; this piece of maple was stubborn and unpredictable. But the wild grain made it worth the fight.

Size
Somewhat larger than life (18 x 20 x 14)

Comments
As is the case with most of my recent work, I decided on the title only after I was finished; my motivation shifted sometime after the midway point in this piece. This title is inspired by Shakespeare's Sonnet 27.
