{"product_id":"rising-of-the-morning-star-katsina-doll","title":"\"Rising Of The Morning Star\" Katsina Doll","description":"\u003cp\u003eBart Gasper, Jr.'s \"Rising Of The Morning Star\" Katsina doll is associated with the breaking dawn and is a warrior to \u003cem\u003eYadokka Datchu\u003c\/em\u003e or Sun Father. The stunning woodwork demonstrates great skill in multiple disciplines. The three-dimensional art form requires spatial awareness and proportion to keep the artwork balanced. It also means understanding the wood medium and its natural characteristics. Just look at the soft \"folds\" of the blanket, the turquoise-hued \"necklace\" and traditional headdress, all beautifully brought out from the cottonwood. The pyrography technique, which is creating designs on a surface by applying heat and pressure, is also utilized in this magnificent and collectible carving to create depth and wonderful detail such as the celestial doings. Surface finishing with elegantly painted acrylics brings colorful spirit to the Katsina doll who is approximately 10 3\/4\" tall, 4 5\/8\" wide and 3 7\/8\" deep, measurements include the base.
