Update (2008)

"Working with you has created a much better life for me and my family. Before, I could hardly afford to live in a single-room home. Now I live in a house with three rooms, and have my own car. Most importantly, I now support many other artisans who work with me. My family and I live a much better life, and five other families now benefit directly from my sales. I'm also able to help my relatives, especially the younger children, who now have shoes, clothes, and an education that they couldn't have before.

"Since joining you in 2004, I have also grown in my realization of how we as Balinese fit into the whole world picture. Before, I was like a lot of fellow Balinese people in that my thinking was centered on Bali only, as if Bali was the world! Now I realize more how we are just a piece of the puzzle. When I read your comments about my work, I'm filled with a great sense of well-being and pride to be able to create something that others value. After all, in Bali, we are a mere spot in a vast ocean, and I realize this now when I see responses from all over the world! Often I look on a map or a globe to see where my shoppers live. It's amazing that my carvings are now in so many various places, and I am here. It is almost as if part of me has traveled to those other places and is now residing there."

Original Artisan Story

"From an early age I loved natural things – plants, animals, birds or sea life. I have a special appreciation for the often neglected dogs that populate all Balinese villages and, when I see the way Western people treat their animals, I hope that someday Indonesians will appreciate their animals as much!

"When I was still quite young, I knew I had an ability to translate nature into artful things of beauty. Because my life has always centered on animals and other natural themes, I use these as my subjects, usually interpreted in tropical woods. Now I have the opportunity to create art subjects incorporating not only Indonesian wildlife but also creatures from all corners of the earth.

"Although I have no formal art training and work purely from my own inspiration and intuition, I know what looks good and what doesn't look right in a carving. I particularly want to create wildlife and other animal themes in an exact, realistic and original way. Each piece is carefully created with this realism in mind. I will not allow anything out of my hands that I wouldn't want to own and display in my own house. It's my highest desire that every design go to a home and give great joy for as long as the owner has it."

This gift was a treasured hit - reminding the owner of her cat. Its beautifully done and just the right size.

John

Masterfully sculpted, -with a Lot of Heart

Jeff

Exquisitely crafted and beautifully painted; I highly recommend this artist's work.

Marie

It's still holding up well after a couple of years of daily use!

Becky

I ordered 3 pieces at the same time after having them in my wish list for a very long time. I am so pleased that I eventually decided to "go for it"! Beautiful workmanship, delivery instructions followed, well packaged and nice knowing I have something unique as it is handmade. The only thing is there was lots and lots of paper used as packaging, so whilst it kept the product safe it did take a lot of space in the recycle bin. Beautiful lifelike piece, no regrets with my purchase

The only thing is there was lots and lots of paper used as packaging, so whilst it kept the product safe it did take a lot of space in the recycle bin. Very life-like, about the same size as my real Siamese cat. My snowshoe has given it a sideways glance more than once, so it's not just me that thinks it realistic.

I gave the relaxing cat to my friend who loves all animals & recently lost one of her 5 cats to old age. So this one reminds her of Stormy. The workmanship with the wood is amazing, excellent work! Thank you!

Joanne

I am so pleased with this beautiful rendition of the female mallard! The detail is meticulous and accurate. I hope this artist does a male mallard someday.

Shan

Initially I was hesitant to use this kitten as a doorstop because he was so beautifully made. He's now cutely stationed at my door.

Jeanne

I keep this sculpture in the middle of my dresser in front of the TV. He makes me smile every time I look at him. This artist does fine work, and I highly recommend him.

Beautiful work I love this piece

The turtle's expression is adorable! Great idea to use the distressed wood look - the turtle appears to be crawling in sand. Love "her". Thank You

Phyllis

I have this beautiful piece as a dog. It sits perfectly on the shelf above my fireplace. My dear friend loves cats as much as I love dogs. So, I ordered the cat for her. Just like mine it's beautiful. She LOVES it.

Such fine details….

Theresa A

Very pleased with the quality! Lovely and sweet, just as shown and described.

Kathleen

My mother loves our black cat Leonardo. We got this for her as a Christmas gift, and she absolutely adores it. The detail is amazing. It is a small piece, beautifully carved and shaped. It was the perfect gift and reminds her of Leo, so she can have him with her every day.

Lynn

Gave as a gift. They love it. Who could not!

Debra

Cute cat. I love the details. Good quality for a gift. Lays flat on the edge of the shelf. it is a delight!

Pat

We have a windy beach house where the doors go crazy and slam shut. These are perfect. They are carved from one piece so they will not break. They are signed by the artist and wrapped so carefully - arrived perfectly. I now have EIGHT of these!

Donna

Beautiful and useful piece of art!

Loretta

This is soooo cute ! Attention to detail and great craftsmanship. He is resting on top of my TV so I can see him often. If you are a cat lover you will not be disappointed in this. Buy yourself one confidently !!

Heather

the carving of this kitty is exemplary and a lot of detail to kitty features whilst capturing the laissez faire "catitude" of slumber and lazing about. The strap of the wood embellishes this carving and I LUV this depiction for its subtle uniqueness in depicting a sleepy laid back kitty. Glad I purchased.

Annette

This door stopper not only serves a practical purpose, but it a work of art. The mouse is so cute. I am an animal lover too. Thank you Nengah for sharing your love of nature and your expertise with the rest of the world.

Mike

I was drawn to the piece during an especially rough time. It reminds me to take time to relax and refocus my energies on the things that are truly important in this short journey we are all on. Small enough to sit on the desk, or large enough to be seen on a shelf it draws attention from everyone that has entered the room. I find it to be another example of excellent craftsmanship by another of your artists.

Miriam A.

We love this delightful cat carving. It sits beautifully on the shelf in front of our smaller books.

Gail

This wooden cat is an unbelievable treasure. It hangs on a shelf and looks great. I have received lots of compliments on it.

Tamara

Wonderfully made cat. He is so handsome, and sits watchful. A wonderful gift for my friend.

Christy

I really! Love! This statue! It is sooo life like sometimes o have to do a double-take I think it is my kitty Jenny!!! Thank You! Christy

Brian

I bought this for my mom for her birthday and she loves it.

Lewis

The carving is very professional craftsmanship and captures the mood including the message.

Jennifer

I gave this "Mindful Cat" to my mother in law for Christmas. She sounded so happy and excited when telling us about it: she says she smiles every time she looks at it, and she could not get over the beauty of the wood. It was the perfect gift!!

Debra

Well done black cat. I put this wooden sculpture in a special place with another one of the artist's pieces.

Karen

The craftsmanship is excellent and the style is as beautiful as the photo in the catalog. It came beautifully wrapped and my daughter was surprised and impressed when she opened it.

Jennifer

The wood, and carving, is beautiful; but I have one criticism: the paw is rounded off too much, so it doesn't actually scratch enough. It is more of a massage feel, and does not take care of the itch, it rubs the itchy area but does not get rid of the itch; and I would love it if the back scratcher had some scratch to it. If it had a bit of an edge on the paw, it would be perfect. I do love it though, just not for scratching my back so much.

Joe

As good as it looks in the picture.Great attention to detail and workmanship. Perfect addition to the living room.Thanks again

Carla

Great quality piece.

Christopher

This cat wood sculpture is beautifully carved and although the pictures show a good depiction, it looks even better in person!

Nanci

This is really a beautiful piece of work, the picture does not do it justice. It will be a gift for my daughter, and I am very excited to give it to her. The gold is a rich gold, not artificial looking. The carving is very detailed.

I get a lot of compliments on these cats. They are very well made and a nice addition to my collection. Thank you!

Linda

This wall art is unique it looks awesome on my bathroom wall with my gray and gold color scheme. Great conversation piece!

Denise

Simple and life like.

Michael

And she loved it.

Nancy

My husband’s birthday duck is so detailed, a work of art! We both love our mallard.

Aaron

It's not easy to find a good quality depiction of a mallard hen -- most statuettes are of the drake -- perhaps because the markings on the hen are delicate and subtle. The artist has done a wonderful job here, and I'm very happy with it. It occupies an honored place in our home.

Elizabeth Anne

A very nicely carved bunny. I was very happy to receive it. It’s cute and pretty !!!!

James

Kitty is so cute resting atop the bookcase.

Dorothy

At a fast glance the cat appears almost real. Well done and finished.

Linda

My husband and I just love this little guy. We have 4 cats and the carving is so lifelike. The quality is exquisite and my 17 month old granddaughter just loves to hold him when she comes over. Thank you so very much Nengah! I also love the fact that you signed your piece, it makes it even more special.

Maureen

We enjoy this beautiful cat carving sitting on the edge of a shelf in our living room. It is so nicely made and well proportioned. It reminds us to relax. I’m so glad I purchased this.

This sleeping kitty is a true work of art. The wood is so beautiful and the carving skills of Nengah are second to none. The piece was signed and dated by the artist which adds to its uniqueness. Wonderful work!

Exactly what I wanted to rest on a mantlepiece. It's like a mini vacation every time I look at my sleeping kitty.

I was very pleased to receive this mallard statuette. I have seen many an iteration at crafting a likeness of this animal, but none better. There was one small scratch despite the great me that that were taken in packaging. I remedied this problem with the help of friend with artist knowledge and voila. It is now proudly displayed in my secretary desk cabinet so I can see it every day.

Charlotte

My friend Donna really liked her cat, much larger than expected.She will set it on her office desk.

I always had cats when I was growing up. My husband is allergic to cats. How I miss them! I received my new kitty today. She is already "sleeping" on the window sill behind my desk. She is adorable & I am so happy to have her. Am getting all choked up; not like me at all. Thank you, Nengah Sudarsana.

WE DON'T SEE MUCH OF THESE WONDERFUL BIRDS IN OUR PLACE. BUT THEY ARRIVE TO OUR HOME FROM INDONESIA!NOW THEY POSE IN SEVERAL PLACES AT HOME. IT'S INCREDIBLE THE ARTRISTY DEVOTED TO EACH ONE.

I look at him across the room as I am going to sleep. It is perfect.

Carolyn

I ordered 4 ducks, all from Nengah Sudarsana. I was skeptical because none of the ducks I ordered are native to Indonesia. They are spot-on. The artist must have really studied the birds. I was so impressed, I ordered four more. They will be used at our fund-raiser in February.

Lisa

This is adorable! Kitty sits by me at my desk.

I was so pleased when I took this beautiful Mallard out of the package! It looks even better in person then in the picture. This artist is very talented and does not disappoint! It arrived quickly and safely. I can't wait to display it!

Love the doorstop. Fast and excellent service.

The wood has a nice pattern and the carving is awesome. Very pleased with this cat. I also received a postcard with some sayings translated to English. Was a thoughtful touch.

I just received my order of the Carolina Wood Duck. I am so happy with my purchase, it is such a beautiful piece! The picture is a very accurate representation of the duck, with it's vibrant colors.

Tracy

Chuck

Just ordered my fourth bird from this artist, need I say more !oo

My husband had wanted a wood duck carving, so I got this for him for Christmas this year. He was absolutely speechless at how beautiful it is (as was I). Outstanding craftsmanship, beautifully painted. We love it!!

Jane

He puts out wood duck houses and loves to see the ducks. This Carolina Wood Duck sculpture captured the beauty of the birds. Beautifully made and rendered. I was also impressed at how quickly it arrived and in perfect condition. The packaging was a work of art and not a piece of plastic anywhere. Very special.

Candace

This is a truly gorgeous carving! The shape is so realistic, and the paint job is so detailed and amazing. It is so rare to find a Female Mallard, any carving is usually of the male. This artist is very talented, having made this piece one of the most "life-like" I have ever seen -I hope to buy more in the future.

Judy

I bought this as an early Xmas gift for my daughter. When she received she was delighted!

Melvin

I love my baby turtle door stop. Very well made.

My wife and I love our praying cat. The wood makes the room feel warmer, and it also brightens it up with a little humour.

This little cat is now ensconsed in my office and everyone who sees it just loves it. When I am alone with my yoga kitty he adds to the peace f my space.

I adore this sculpture! I have lived with cats for years and knew this kitty needed to join my home. It sits with Buddha and it is beautifully carved and always makes me feel the serenity when I look at it.

He has pride of place on my coffee table. The cat's head is so beautifully carved, you want to stroke its cheeks. I smile whenever I look at it. The artist signs on the bottom, which is nice. I wish I could get a big one like this to put in my garden!

Well made and a perfect size for my bookshelf!

This is the perfect size and makes me smile every time I look at it. Its true to the picture its obvious the artist took great care in creating this. :-)

Much larger than expected. I saw the dimensions but still figured on a palm size carving. Kitty is sitting on my work desk & helping relieve the stress of the day. Looks exactly as shown.

Nice bright colors, the beak's color of orange in the photograph is actually red and the strokes were a bit too broad, overall a wonderful piece though.

My precious cat has gone blind and her eyes have glossed over. She had the prettiest caramel eyes which are no longer visible. When I saw this cat it reminded me of my cat Boo. The artist did an amazing job making this product lifelike. The detail and craftsmanship is flawless. It truly exceeded my expectations.

My kitty arrived as scheduled and was securely wrapped and protected in its box. It is beautifully designed and crafted. It projects peace and tranquility, and I loved it as soon as I saw it. The craftsman obviously cared to create something of meaning.

Claudia

I'm enjoying this cat a lot. Its pleasing expression overcomes even the darkest day. I have a good friend in the hospital who loves tabby cats so I think I will purchase another by Nengah Sudarsana for her. He clearly has a great feeling for cats and their expressions with both body and face.

Thomas

Nice quality and great addition to my cat collection.

Henry

After a forced move of his work space this meditating cat is gracing my friend's new location. I then ordered two more. One for my home and a birthday gift for a family member,

Monica

This is my second carving from the artist and it is just as beautiful and peaceful as the "meditating cat". The "blessing cat" is displayed at the entrance to my house to bless those who enter. I love it!
