Three Superb Mudmen

G’day Folks,

Three Superb Mudmen:
Players, height, 13.5cm, Watcher, height, 8.5cm, and Carpenter, height, 9.5cm.

Found these three Mudmen on a local street market, each are ‘signed’ or ‘titled on their bases, not sure which as I do not read Chinese. All three had been previously used by an unknown [to me or the seller] bonsai grower, judging by the amount of dried moss and soil that had filled their bases cavities

Enjoy,

Nigel

Of particular interest to me is the “Carpenter” as I have never seen one of these fellows in this occupation, mine are all gamblers or fishermen, oh yes one flute player. Best Paul Williams

Thanks for sharing and making at least one of us green with envy. __________________ "Although profoundly "inconsequential," the Zen experience has consequences in the sense that it may be applied in any direction, to any conceivable human activity, and that wherever it is so applied it lends an unmistakable quality to the work." ~ Alan Watts (1915-1973)
