Each tree is uniquely made by its creator, therefore each cut, each piece
is unique.
With the variance of grains in the wood, with the angle of the cut,
the individual carved pieces take on the unique aspects of the wood and
its inherant individuality.
As the carver works to bring out the beauty of each piece,
you will find variances in shape and size of each carving.
The pieces sold on this site will be close to the photos but will vary
due to the uniqueness of the natural wood.

studies each piece of wood and works with the natural grains to bring out
the 3 dimensional carving to its full potential. In his hands he can form
wood from finely finished slabs or the lowly pine knot into finished works
of art. |

his tiny shop located in the eastern High Sierra Mountains of California,
USA, Ron lives through some of the harshest winters imaginable. Temperatures
fall well below 0(f) and tempers the trees that will eventually become these
amazing carvings. |
