Maintenance of this wood carving should be the occasional deck sealant if kept outside, or dusting if indoors. Tree pollen buildup can be removed with a soapy sponge. In extreme cases, unusual conditions, or in a harsh environment, regular maintenance with an oil-based, satin-finish verathane may be required. Be sure to cover the glass eyes first with tape, and apply oil in a shady spot with no wind to spread debris onto the finish (inside a garage would be ideal). Allow it to dry in an airy place.

Although specializing in carving bears as well as Bigfoot, the artist can carve almost any critter or character. We have seen his custom ordered carving of a buffalo which stood 5 foot tall and about 6 foot in length. A massive, eye-catching piece!! All of his pieces are hand carved out of fine cedar or redwood. He finishes them with a polyurethane varnish to ensure that they hold up to the elements for years of enjoyment.

The Salish "wild man" legend, including the term "Sasquatch," shares a common origin with the modern concept of "Bigfoot". "Sasquatch" is an Anglicized version of the Salish word "sésq̓ǝc" meaning "wild man". The term "Bigfoot," popularized in the late 1950s, gained traction after a story about plaster casts of giant footprints surfaced.

The Salish "wild man" and the modern concept of "Bigfoot" share a common theme of a large, hairy, ape-like humanoid creature inhabiting wild, forested areas. While the terms and stories are related, the cultural understanding of "Sasquatch" within Indigenous communities might differ from how it's perceived by outsiders. Indigenous beliefs may be chosen selectively to support modern Bigfoot legends, which can be an example of "retrofitting" or confirmation bias. The Salish "wild man" legend is part of a broader cultural understanding of the natural world, while the term "Bigfoot" has become more associated with cryptozoology and modern belief systems.
