A Crow for my Father In Law

Far too long ago my beloved Father in Law asked me to make him a sculpture. He had seen a painting once that he fell in love with. He described it to me as " A crow in boots walking across a field carrying his carpetbag". I immediately recognized the image he described and pulled it up on my computer:

A wonderful image by RUDI HURZLMEIER  (note: site is in German)

As you can observe in the image, the carpetbag was something his memory placed there - but no reason it can't be on the other side where we just don't see it!

The base was one of those projects started long ago that has just sat, so what better time than now to finally get it done!

 Progress that I completed yesterday:
