Artist Transforms Driftwood Into Fantastical Sculptures That Look Like Spirits Of Nature

When I work with driftwood, I never start with a blank canvas. Each piece of driftwood is already a sculpture, created by the caresses of the waves and wind. Each hand crafted piece represents the spirits of nature. A human fusing together with nature. The wood tells a story and I try to think of its journey as I hold it in my hand. I extend or shorten the curves and contours that already exist into familiar shapes of animals or peoples' faces.
