Hideaway - 2012 By Jonathan Gosling
This whimsical fantasy dwelling is carved from the bark of a long dead Plains Cottonwood tree found here in northern Michigan.
Hand carved windows,doors and shingles, add to the detail, and there are even little nail holes on each carved board. Very rustic! :) Measures approx 7 3/4" tall. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did creating it! A perfect gift for someone special. There is a small balanced hole in the back for hanging and is signed. :) The last pics shows this carving with another one finished recently, so you can see how nice they look together.
The wood I used, is actually bark from a long dead Cottonwood tree found here in upper Michigan.
Cottonwood Bark info:
Each layer of bark is paper thin, and equals 1 year of growth for the tree. Some thicker pieces are well over 150 years old. The layers are compressed over the life of the tree and are quite dense when harvested.
