Wood Duck
2004
Red Cedar on grey-white, light brown-veined marble base
11"H x 15.5"W x 11.5"D; Base: 0.75"H x 20"W x 15"D
In this statue, the red of the Red Cedar wood forms roughly the lower half of the duck's body, while the wood's cream color forms roughly the upper half: its neck and breast. The neck is formed from the area between two branches to minimize splitting.
