<p>[QUOTE=&quot;blooey, post: 2444519, member: 12007&quot;]Well last night I took a look and read about the Jepara woodcarvings. They are indeed quite something!</p><p><br /></p><p>While perusing various examples of Jepara work, looking for similarities between my pieces and the Jepara style, I kept running across a lot of other carvings almost exclusively described as Balinese.</p><p>These pieces were much closer in subject matter and technique to my carvings than what I saw described as Jepara work so what I&#039;m wondering is ...are these &quot;Balinese&quot; carvings I see mis-identified Javanese/Jepara pieces?</p><p><br /></p><p>As a new student of Balinese style, I think I assumed my pieces were from Bali at first because the figure with the long fingernails at the crest of the frame reminded me of some Balinese masks.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]264818[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
