Graceful, Gestural Whittled Form/Figure Mt. Moosilalauke souvenir a member of the Sioux

a member of the Sioux tribe who worked at Sioux Pottery in Rapid City

on Cathay")--which makes me wonder whether the original inspiration for the drawing was an image first painted on a teacup

and all the crayons are in very good shape

as well as pencil marks all over

Great spare form (this owl feels rather Brutalist to me in the best of ways)

Graceful, Gestural Whittled Form/Figure Mt. Moosilalauke souvenir a member of the SiouxJust a little thing, but I think it's so lovely, like a whittled abstraction of a long limbed modern dancer. I don't know anything of who made it or when, but I sure love the effect of the patch of bark left untouched, as if minimally clothing a figure who reaches out from center in every direction. 5 1 2" longest x 4" wide measured on the square. Very good condition.
