Oneonta, USA: A hand carved wooden sculpture called The Swimmer. YOU WOODEN’ Adam and Eve how realistic these eye-popping carvings are. The works pictured here are amazing pieces carved entirely out of wood – and can take up to 1,000-hours to painstakingly complete. Inspired by stone sculptures while studying in Rome 27 years-ago, American sculptor Stefanie Rocknak (48), decided to transfer the skills of the stone masters to her favourite material - wood.
