Zydeco Zeke

“Zydeco Zeke” by Southern Marsh Carvings is a bold and spirited wooden sculpture that captures the rhythm and soul of the Southern wetlands. With its dynamic posture and distinct personality, this piece features a striking marsh bird perched atop a dark, weathered driftwood stump, surrounded by hand-carved cattails and patina-touched reeds.

The bird’s expressive form—carved from richly grained wood with natural knots—gives Zeke a character all his own, blending rustic charm with artistic flair. The whimsical yet grounded composition evokes the vibrant energy of zydeco music, making this sculpture a celebration of Southern culture, nature, and craftsmanship.
