I had to share this with you. This guy has made me feel miserable. The web is in spanish only, but there is not much to be inderstood. It is a large collection of monuments made in wood complemented with other materials. Believe it or not, he states he has made everything by hand without electric tools. To see the whole collection of items for sale simply click on the first picture and then the right arrow.

Pedro:

Wow!!

I agree, it sure is humbling to someone's work like that. I don't understand Spanish, but it seems some were 'fabricated' in 1995 or so. That web show looks to be many years of work invested there.

Thanks for sharing.

I can relate to that feeling. I used to enjoy playing the guitar and I went to a classical concert featuring Los Indios Tabajaras They played songs even with broken strings and didn't miss a beat.
I went home and parked my guitar for some time.

You may feel a little down, but I assure you that is how many of us feel when we see your work.
Each of us takes this journey and we all take different paths, one is not better than the other it is just different.

I want to thank you for posting the link, the work is awe inspiring. much like yours is!

Thanks Carl.
