Sculpture
I began to sculpt wood when my granddaughter Emma asked me to make her a wooden duck for Christmas. On the journey back from Calgary to Edmonton it came to me that I wanted to carve the curve of a swan’s neck. I have never looked back since.
I carve the wood by hand using a mallet and gouges from the Swiss company Pfeil.
Recently, I have begun to combine carving techniques with lathe turned forms.
