Ya really know how to get a Keebler Elf, like myself, wantin one of those. Absolutely stunning bow. Your sculpture design is brilliant. The design is what makes the whole thing so nice, well done.

Stand up job as always!  That sculpture is 'primitive' in design maybe but very elegant.  As is that piece of kink'd yew you teased a beautiful bow out of.

it's all been said but i'll say it anyway, both are awesome ;D

As for your tiller, well, it's a typical Del tiller.... just right ;)  That reflex kink area appears to be doing it's fair share based on brace and full draw.  I love it.  Bet that'll get some wagging heads at the range/shoots >:D

Gorgeous. Those inlays are beyond me.
"The way of heaven is like the bending of a bow-
 the upper part is pressed down,
 the lower part is raised up,
 the part that has too much is reduced,
 the part that has too little is increased."

Del, I'm amazed how you get the motion of drawing and loosing an arrow in a static sculpture.  It's incredible!
