This Woodspirit carved in cottonwood bark is unique because the bark from which it is carved is very hard. This allowed me to include some detail in the carving that is usually not possible in a carving material like cottonwood bark, which is notorious for chipping, making finer detail attempts by the carver an exercise in maintaining control of his/her temper.
