Hot pants

The forest's graffiti comes in all shapes and sizes, here the shape is comely if not somewhat exaggerated, and the size is quarter scale-ish. It's a weird one for sure. No doubt a fantasy image of a woman, although the way the carver has proportioned the body and something in the stance lends the graffiti a strange masculinity. It's notoriously difficult to age tree carved graffiti, so many factors at play, though I'm going to suggest 70's/80's by the style of hot pants. Another carving I'll never know the story behind and another addition to what's becoming quite a collection of images.
