Finished the third of the primitives. Each is carved on an 8″ x 10″ plywood panel and painted. If I hinged them together, I guess it would be a triptych. As it is they are three of a kind. The hands, of course, are modeled after ancient cave drawings in Argentina. So between the three we have Africa, Europe and South America represented. Do you want to know the hardest part of these pieces? Hanging them straight and equi-distance apart.

I don’t know if I’ll do more of these or not. They are fussy and slow to make. But I have more plywood panels if I change my mind.
