Carving A Wood Spirit In Cottonwood Bark - Lucas Kost

This was another exercise in working around large cracks in the piece. I used to consider these cracked pieces as junk pieces, but recently I've decided to just go for it and see how the crack emerges as a character element in the piece. This one ended up having a huge crack right through the eye, which made it difficult to get the details in but it worked out in the end (with the assistance of some gorilla glue).
Hope you enjoy the video and carving, thanks for watching!
