Dash
A large, life-size, sculpture in English lime and mounted onto elm of the dog, Dash, a whippet/ greyhound/ border collie lurcher. A single 2m x 200mm x 150mm post of lime was cut into sections, glued and clamped together to form the basic shape, and then attached with wood carving gouges. The culture was mounted on a piece of English elm.
