  I have very few photos of the many Powertool carvings I've made.  
 Customers are invited to email photos to me of any of my Powertool carvings they may own, if they would like them added to this site.

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


Picture
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.
Picture
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.
Picture
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.
Picture
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".

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.
