Woke this morning to learn my friends’ return has been delayed. Only slightly, won’t really change anything, but still. “Delay” is not, at this point, good news.
My cerebral function having come almost entirely to a halt, I’ve been sitting here watching videos of this guy carving walking sticks. The videos contain a certain percentage of folksy bullshit but he’s quite skillful at producing photorealistic rattlesnake carvings. He has clearly given rattlesnakes a lot of thought, and I’m impressed by his patience for detail.
This morning’s stick depicting the last moments of a mouse that has attracted a snake’s attention kind of matches my mood…
Very realistic carving
Very very beautiful work. I’d be afraid to take it outside.
Amazing detail!
