Irreverent Greenman (or Jack-in-the-Green)
Carved for the NWA Show in 2019, the Greenman was traditionally an element of religion before Christianity.  They were carved into church misericords, demonized, and often shown in pain with greenery growing out of their noses and mouths.  Mike Bloomquist carved this from butternut with an attitude, which explains the title.  The dimensions are 13" wide x 23" tall x 3" thick.  It is finished with satin polyurethane.
