Nessie

"Nessie is a celebration of myth and mystery, crafted with precision and care to bring the legend of Loch Ness to life. This piece was turned on a lathe, meticulously cut apart, reassembled, carved, and brush-painted to capture the grace and intrigue of the fabled creature. Emerging from the waters of Loch Ness, Nessie invites viewers to connect with the enduring allure of folklore and the beauty of creative storytelling."

Terrific piece. Marvelous rendition of Nessie.
Great to see your work evolving.

In the grander scheme of things, could Nessie be a giant anhinga type bird?
