Sun King sconce 2

Basswood, copper and glass, 22"/56cm high.  The need to illuminate a
mudroom was the impetus for this project, I wasn't finding any
interesting commercially available sconces so why not make one?  As I
carved I thought about how this character has the duty of bringing light
to the darkness, and so a bit of a story suggested design elements,
such as the stars and moons).
