"Heart Wall Sculpture"
This arrived in record time and is absolutely gorgeous! The picture does it no justice. Thank you Somyot, you are truly gifted and I love the idea of you recycling instead of contributing to pollution.

"Exactly what I was looking for"
This is a lovely, well-made piece of art. I was looking for a relatively small wall hanging in a cat motif for a specific location in my entry hall. If I didnt know better, Id think this artist was reading my mind.
