Knothead

Meet Knothead, he is carved from a half log of catalpa. He measures 15 1/2" x 6 1/2" x 3".  I finished him by applying a liberal coat of polyurethane, and wiping off the excess with paper towels. I used a small dry brush to remove the excess in small areas where the polyurethane would pool. This allows a nice finish without the shine.
