Turn a Block of Wood into a Box of Money
This is a painted wood sculpture, carved from a single block of wood, by Randall Rosenthal. Its title is "Old Money."
It’s tough to make real money from your work, but I found a guy who is dong the next best thing. I wouldn’t have believed it if I hadn’t seen the step-by-step photos myself.
His name is Randall Rosenthal, and he lives in East Hampton, NY. Everything he does is carved from a single block of wood, and hand-painted. Here are the rest of the photos for the “Old Money” sculpture, plus more info about the artist, and here is his own website, which includes a gallery of his amazing work.

Unbelievable.
I can't figure out what's more impressive; the carving or the painting
That's pretty spectacular. Must take a long time to develop those skills.
Absolutely amazing!
Well, it sure is different than the droopy, hairy, old man spirits peering out of logs.
Fantastic. If he wants to sell it he should charge a box of money.
His painting skills are beyond belief. The carving is spectacular but the detail of the painting is what makes the project come to life. I wonder how he paints such fine detail on the lower levels of his work???
They're very well done! You should check out Australian artist & carver Ricky Swallow's works

Without a doubt the essence is in the painting.
