This carving was inspired from a patron. I have added my carving style to her and changed her positioning and making her more proud and adding more details not in his original. The entire top wing area now flows behind her giving her more of a scuptural appearance. The head is carved in full to match her proud appearance. In carving her form and adding the back are we are then able to obtain more detail not available if I had not. The same for the banners. A short motto or saying can be carved into the banner instead of the present motto.
