"Let the Wood Speak #!" began as a 6 x 10 that was 5 feet long that was a leftover from a construction site.  I stared at the piece of wood for over a year trying to visualize what it could become.  Finally, I decided to just start carving away at it and let the motion of the knots and grains guide me to its shape.  The carving process lasted a few months until the final form you see today emerged.
