Brookhaven Student Art Show

It took me weeks to make this monkey, but it was a lot of fun. My teacher asked me to enter it in the student art show, so here it is! I started out with a 16 foot long 2x6 plank of wood. I gave my friend who ran out of wood about 4 feet of it, so the monkey plus the stand were made out of the remaining 12 feet. The stand is about 2 feet high and 18 inches wide. The piece is movable at the shoulders, hip, and knee. The markings were burned in and 2 colors of wood stain were used.
