Yoshi a Lifesized Jack Russell  Hundreds of hours in the making, this dog sculpture is made from driftwood, each piece carefully selected and placed to match the flow of the muscles in the body. Life sized. The wood is found along the shorelines and riverbeds of the Phillippines archipelago and is from a number of indigenous species, all dense enough to withstand years and years of exposure to the extreme tropical climate. Suitable for life indoors or out.  If kept outdoors the polished beeswax sheen will gradually fade and revert to the natural finish and colour of 'raw' driftwood.  It is advised that the inlaid marble base be removed if it is to be kept outdoors.
