'Self Portrait' (Right Musk Oxen Horn - Phase 1) by Shane Wilson

Self Portrait by Shane Wilson, in progress, right horn phase 1 (carved musk oxen horn)
The design on the right horn is more complicated and yet more unified than that on the left. It signals a consolidation of the self-identity and life-work of the individual.

This consolidation, and the working through of the accumulated dross of one's life, yields precious fruit, one's legacy.
