Sea Turtle by Junko Stickney

Junko Stickney favors organic forms in her metalsmithing, and after visiting the Big Island of Hawaii she wanted to express the qualities of a sea turtle she encountered - its adorable movements, its dignified prescence that evokes a sense of timelessness, and the fleeting nature of a living creature's existence.
