This Mudhead, including the base, was hand crafted from one piece of cottonwood root with Stellar carving and paint details throughout. He is carrying a bag of groceries for the Mudhead giveaway. The technique of carving from only one piece of root is much more difficult than the typical practice of adding extremities such as arms and legs to a central figure, hence, they are considered much more valuable to knowledgeable collectors. This Wonderful little Art Masterpiece would be a great addition to any good collection. Order him now and enjoy. Signed William Lucio
