| "Dolphins" |
I have always loved using my hands, be it for gardening, painting or just simply admiring my rings : )
So, over the last few years I've been carving these "Dolphins", which comes from the seed capsule of the Sandbox tree (Hura crepitans). The capsules looks like tangerines, as it ripens it bursts open with an explosive sound and the seeds are scattered. You can find lots of them on the forest floor, I use my army knife to carefully cut out the excess matter in the middle, and then I put a hole at the top, which will be the eye. Next I use some sandpaper to get a smooth finish, finally I dip it in some varnish.
