Wooden figure with face that looks like it grew out of knots in wood

This is an odd piece, to put it mildly. First, it appears to be missing things as her hands have holes in them. Second her face is so weird -- it looks like it just grew out of the tree. It is about 10 inches high. Any ideas where it might be from or what it was or what was supposed to be in her hands?
Sorry the pictures are not great -- they got cut off when I uploaded them.
Thanks for any ideas
