We brought many souvenirs from Krakow, Poland. One of them was a gnome. I really liked it and wanted to have another one after we came back. So, I made this one by using a piece of balsam wood, which is relatively easy to carve and hard to give shape. It is a single piece. After I finished carving, I colored it with acrylic paint.

Mask
When we came to the US to study several years ago, we brought a mask from our home country. It's a beautiful mask. One day, I will make a replica of it. I promise.Meanwhile, I made this one by using wooden sticks and glue. It has several layers so it's kinda 3-D.
Bonsai
This is my first bonsai tree ever! I used wooden sticks, acrylic paint, and glue to create this piece. It is now almost two years old and lives happily with us.(Some may think that it looks like a dna model.)
