Baby Buddha (2002)
Portrait of a Child
One of a kind Original
Basalt
11"H x 8"D x 6"W

Brought forth from a column of basalt, the ‘hand of the Master’ is truly on display with this exquisitely carved portrait of a sleeping baby just about to awake.

Perhaps because of the density of the medium, perhaps because of the strong presence of the baby, this relatively small carving has a captivating aura about it.  The smooth surfaces, in many ways as soft as a baby’s skin, invite loving caresses.
