Large Moose Trophy Head

Using eight varieties of willow, this handwoven willow sculpture of a moose head drew its inspiration from Victorian game trophies. It was crafted over a wire frame to support the wide span of the rack. The process for Bob's pieces starts with personally growing more than 40 varieties of willow, giving him a wide range of colours and textures.
