Reindeer wood carvings - a Christmas theme enjoyed by the children
I love wood carving and wood sculpture, don’t you? It’s so natural and authentic! So, I was more than pleased to see a wood craftsman sculpting wood during last weekend’s Dunster by Candlelight in West Somerset.
I particularly liked the ‘Free range reindeer’ – great for the kids – and it is particularly amazing that all the craft work was done by a chainsaw.
Other items included a bird of prey and what looked to my uninformed eye rather like a stork.
When I got back home, I checked out his URL and was pleased to see it was a local craftsman called Matthew Crabb who lives in Dunster.
Wood carving craftsman at work - have you a tree stump that needs crafting?
If you are thinking about a wood carving gift for someone special or perhaps for a great feature your garden, Matt is passionate about wood carving and would love to hear from you to discuss ideas for individual wood carving commissions.
Lots more information at Matt’s interesting web site exmoorchainsawcarving.co.uk
Bye for now
