Indian Brave

Indian Brave

This is an early one.  Carved back in 1999.  He’s clearly ready for battle…decked out with his lance, shield, bow and arrows, tommyhawk, and I’ll bet there’s a knife behind that shield.  Native Americans are a joy to carve and paint.  There are details galore and then there’s the painting challenge.  Oh, and the research to make sure that even though it might be a caricature, it should be an accurate representation of the figure.

Comments welcome.

I might be a little man in a big world but on our 30 acres I'm the one in charge when the wife's not around!
