Honestly, it’s exhausting that people think Gazans should only ask for help to survive to eat, to stay alive but not to dream, to study, or to rebuild their lives. Wanting education, safety, and a future isn’t greed. It’s being human.

Hello #PortfolioDay !

I'm a woodcarver from France. I'm sculpting animals, anthropomorphic ones or weird creatures.

You can find my work on my website, but also ... on DOOM II !

My DOOM II portfolio mod :

www.moddb.com/mods/museumwad

My website :

bisonrimant.fr

Woocarved weird creature with one eye, small tentacles as a motuh, curvy horns, a robre, and a duck on its head.

Anthropomorphic octopus wearing a dress. It has a frog taking shelter on a book on its head. Its holding a basket in its tentacle arms. The base is like dark waters, where, among bulrush, a sword emerge. On the handle, a kingfisher sits.

A sculpture of an anthropomorphic crow with a hooded cape. Its hand is on the pommel of its sword, wich is attached at its side. On the other arm, a squirrel is climbing. Beside its feets, a cat sits.

An anthropomorphic goose weraing plate armor. It' holding a shield and a mace. On the mace, red robin sits.

Okay, I'm doing tonight's local needs early, and I'm doing an unusual one. It's not life or death; not an emergency, although it *is* time-sensitive.

It's for our friend Jen, who runs the local dog rescue Taos Hound Underground.
