Pounamu master

One thing I really enjoyed doing in Stewart Island was carving myself a piece of greenstone (pounamu). This was my tutor. It took about 4 hours to make the pendant. Such satisfying work.

Thank you so much for commenting on this portrait. He was such a character with his weatherbeaten face. I have posted a photo of the greenstone piece I made for those who are interested.
