This carving is dedicated to the part of the spirit which takes refuge on the side of a mountain in Vermont. The Walnut log from which it was carved was blown down by a tornado which ripped through the hamlet of New Suffolk, NY in 1999. There was a complex and unusual set of cracks in the wood which had to be avoided as vision and material had their dialog.
