Dramatic Jet Black Colour! Museum quality Sculpture!
JUST LOOK OVER YOUR SHOULDER BABY raises the bar for the Inuit artists who focus on carving the quintessential OWL.
The majority of Inuit Owl carvings have large sturdy feet, large inlaid eyes, are geometric in their style, and have a prominent beak.
These Raptors are magnificent and pay homage to these wise and stoic birds.
Sam has positioned Just's head so she is looking 180 degrees backward.
Then, he has pulled her wings backwards, folded them and added a column of stone where her back is located.
This interpretation adds breadth and bulk to the body of this imperial bird.
The inlaid eyes, the prominent beak, and large feet are all there.
Finally, the Black stone is flawless, rich and polished to a perfect glossy shine.
This stunning Lady is ready to dance!!!!
