Masterpiece Carving! Museum quality Sculpture!
You'd have to be hiding under an ice floe to not be aware of the genius of Toonoo Sharky.
For me, he is the preeminent Inuit carver in his ability to carve AND his creativity.
Fledgling Life is the next chapter in Sharky's sculpture portfolio.
I can't recall ever seeing these mesmerizing apple green eyes in a Sharky carving!
The contrast between Fledgling's green eyes and flawless vanilla white stone, pulls you into the young Owl's energetic spirit.
Fledgling sits at the cusp of his life . . .
No longer a dependent owlet, he stands on the edge of his nest.
|
Moving his head slowly from side to side, he gains perspective on his surroundings.
With one small step (his NEXT step), he becomes an adult Raptor; one of the world's largest and most dangerous birds.
We are privileged to witness this secret and sacred moment!
Every one of us has experienced this necessary step forward from which we cannot return.
Fledgling Life is here to remind us of Life's exciting possibilities!
