Available in this lot we have a hand carved signed quail decoy statue by Wanda Smith. Wanda is a local Montana artist in the Gallatin valley and has done work with Big Sky Carvers located in Manhattan, Montana. The statue depicts a quail, most likely a Bobwhite, standing on a section of burl wood. The quail shows a wonderful carved figure with a detailed hand painted coloration and feather patterns. The bobwhite is set onto a piece of highly charactered burl wood with contrasting light brown and black coloration. The bottom of the wood is signed "Wanda Smith". The decoy shows good condition overall with some minor wear on the head. The bird measures approximately 9" long by 4 3/4" wide and sits 12 1/2" tall with the piece measuring 13 1/2" long by 6 3/4" wide overall.
