A quick rest before I reach my final destination, 2026

There’s a certain sense of resourcefulness and wonder with how some caterpillars use wood to construct their cocoon. While I was working on this cocoon I couldn’t help but let my instincts take over. In a way I did this to feel closer to these caterpillars.
About:
There's such a mysterious wonder in all of nature, in all of the plants and animals that exist. I find it's easy to become lost in its depth as we are a part of it. I tend to draw on nature as my inspiration using natural elements like deer antlers, bones, bugs and other things alike in my sculptures along with more traditional sculpting materials.
