How a Cyclops became Batman

I wanted to experiment with making 2-tone holes in a piece of palm.  I have seen them in African masks and made one earlier.  Now I want to try different designs.  


The hole that I put in randomly made the palm look like a stylised Cyclops.  I don’t know what to do with a Cyclops.  So I put in another hole, two pointed ears and a hint of a neck to make a cat. 



It came out looking more like Batman.  Sometimes these things seem to have a mind of its own. I just provide the hands that carry out its will.
