Wood statuette, 'Hold Me Close'

Kadek Rudyana

"My name is Kadek Rudyana. I was born in 1974, the youngest of six children, in a village that has fostered the art of woodcarving for many years.

"When I was younger, I never thought that one day I would be a sculptor. I come from a poor farming family. I still remember the time I asked for money. Instead of giving money, my mother threw a piece of wood toward me and told me to work so that I could have money. I could not blame her for this. It was her way of teaching me to be strong in facing the hardships of life.

"To pay for my own school expenses, I started to learn woodcarving when I was just an elementary school student, together with other children. Times were hard then, but I was strongly supported by my parents who would always say to me 'you have to work hard.' I studied as hard I could, learning from my teacher and asking friends who were already my seniors in carving. And I experimented a lot on my own."

I just received the sculpture "togetherness" and it is very lovely. The quality and beauty of it are wonderful and it also arrived very quickly (in time for valentine's day). Thank you very much!...
