The use of wood for art predates almost all other materials, with the exception of stone. Humans revere wooden art, and for good reason. It has a quality no other material has, because it is still organic matter, something that used to be a living thing, and the memory of that life brings a special quality to these wonderful works, that seem just about to burst into new life as knights, animals, or even a car. These are some of the best examples of what a talented artist can do with this beloved material. |
