@mmrogers You all have an amazing talent!
I have a neighbor that carves. His forte is using native wood to carve its leaf or nut. It is so realistic, true to size. Every once in awhile he will inlay some turquoise or quartz in his work.
Edit to add photos.

I like your Broad Face too. We have four kachinas. Sunface and Crow Man, which are in your collection, as well as Eagle and White Bear.

Those are some great pieces. My two favorite are the old man and the dancing couple.

Thank you for posting them. They are much more detailed and look to be high collector quality. I sure appreciate you taking the time to share them. Which is your favorite? The eagle would be my mine.

Absolutely beautiful. The carving is incredible on all these pieces. My 2 favorites are: Crow Man and Sunface. Their sense of movement is conveyed so well.

Wow! I don’t know very much about kachinas, and I’ve never really wanted to buy any (not in my wheelhouse), but these are incredible. The detail is amazing! Thanks for sharing!

Picking a favorite is difficult. Every time I think one is my favorite, I change my mind. I think it depends on my mood, but Crow Man and Sunface seem to rank up there most often. Crow Man with his natural movement, proportionate/muscular anatomy, fine feathers, detailed clothing, and overlapping moccasin fringe by far took the most technical skill and precision. But Sunface is the best dancer.
