LIFESIZE OTTERS

  I have very few photos of the many Powertool carvings I've made.  
 Former customers are invited to email photos to me of any of my Powertool carvings they may own so I can add them to this site.

"Thanks so much for all you do for so many nature lovers out there!"  PS

The White-tailed Buck, the jumble of wood he is leaping over, and the rocks and ground beneath him are all carved from a single piece of basswood. I had set him outside for the photo, so that accounts for the background.

Another view of the White-tailed Buck. Keep in mind that the antlers, ears, legs, and all else comprising this carving were carved out of a single piece of Basswood. This picture was taken in my Long Lake carving studio.

An Eastern Chipmunk carved for Mr.& Mrs. Rob Woodbridge. The Chipmunk, the branch he is on, and the rock beneath the branch are all carved from a single piece of Basswood.

Another view of the Woodbridge's Chipmunk. Many hours of texturing with a fine-tipped woodburning tool are needed to create the effect of fur on a carving such as this.

A picture sent to me of one of my carvings somebody bought on Ebay.  It was obviously not well cared for: claws are broken; the bee that was originally on the cub's nose is missing; it is very dusty and dinged-up.  I made a few of these while living in Long Lake, NY, calling them "A Nose For Trouble".

Northern Flying Squirrel

This is one of the earliest carvings I made while living in Long Lake, after I first decided to carve for a living.  It is numbered #11 and is dated 11-12-83.  It was textured with a wood-burner -  possibly the first carving I ever "burned".  Part of a private collection.

A life-sized Chihuahuan Raven carved for a good customer and friend in Arizona.
