. The stump wasn’t suitable, so the decision was made to have an ‘add-on’. I made it in my barn and then firmly secured it in place. All that remained was to shape the joint.What do you reckon?!

I would have seen the van moving out, slowed down, let the van do its thing and pull out etc.
Then I would have continued within the cycle lane. No need to cycle around. No need to come into contact with the pedestrian. No verbal interactions and everyone would go home happy !

Maybe a Green Man Sculpture …?
Made from some of the felled trunk ?
A symbol of the life and death of a tree and then its Rebirth
Similar to this one perhaps that I made from a 200 year old Manchester trunk (Weeping Ash) on Tuesday !!
