Default Hollow Form with Red Tailed Hawk Feathers

This is a hollow form 13" x 4" in box elder. The feathers are done with a woodburning tool then colored with acrylic. The piercing was done with a dental type tool, air powered @350,000 rpm. The feathers are done to look like the feathers of a Red Tailed Hawk.
