This breath taking demonstration of Folk Art Carving Skill is nothing short of astonishing. Carved from what would appear to be a "V" fork section of yucca wood, the colorings are polychrome and hand-applied.
This creative masterpiece is presented in a most bizarre manner - its spines are actually the tips of dried cacti - with simple (now rusted) small carpenter nails used to attach them to the foundational "V" body structure. The tail fins are also applied - being constructed of carved [again] sections of yucca wood.
The creator of this amazing artifact is, to me, unknown.
