Wooden Statue

So I found myself in some apartment with a bunch of statues and paintings of a kind you wouldn't usually see. Art can be cool to observe, sometimes. But I needed to be in the mood, and there were 2 girls and an aged man, making it harder to get in that state of mind. Of course, I tried -- because pictures don't compare to seeing a piece right in front of you, which allows viewing it from afar, up close, and all kinds of angles. Then my eye landed on this statue, seemingly made from a single piece of wood, overseeing the room. It seemed peaceful, and for a statue, that shouldn't be surprising. But, and I agree with this assertion, the room was too full of statues. The aged man had no room to put the others. Knowing that fact allowed me to see through the calm act the statue had put on. This scared the statue into playing lifeless. And now I regret exposing it. I wanted to paint the feeling the statue gave me. Without being able to stare at it for a little longer, this was hard to achieve.
