"A hunter killed a sea otter and forgot to thank it for its life. When he gifted it to his wife the otter came back to life and swam away. The wife jumped in after it and was captured by Sg_aan, who took her down to his village at the bottom of the sea.
An apprenticeship is a humbling experience because you realize how much you don’t know. I spent a lot of time trying to brainstorm something unique like the previous charity boxes I’ve seen. Eventually, after a conversation with a friend, I realized I need to stick to the classical form and so I challenged myself in creating fine detail."
