Barked the Wild Hare to its ride.
As the tortoise slowed its pace,
And raced on till it died.

I love finding other people who have the same demented humor and bizarre thought processes as me. Especially when combined with awesome art skills like the ones on display here.
Love the tribal etchings, gives it a sort of eldritch fable vibe I really dig. Have any particular culture vibe in mind, or just free-forming it? I see some bits that look Mayan or Aztec, and some that look Celtic, and other bits that look Polynesian... cohesive look overall, just wondering if its a conscious effort to combine, or if its you rediscovering the same patterns.

Thanks for the great comment. I'm always looking at different sources to inspire the carving on my work. Mayan, Aztec, Celtic and Polynesian are all included. I also look to film, comic books, tattoos and other artwork. You can see more work with carving at: www.claybeast.com. Thanks again!
