Horned Puffin Wood Carving

Alaskan wood carver, Ron Gravenhorst carves a few species of Alaskan birds in life size; and most species of ducks, geese, swans, and loons in miniature.

He uses basswood and after cutting out the profile on a band saw uses only knives and gouges to carve.

A wood burning tool is used for the feathering and he paints the birds using brushes and acrylic paints.

Ron lives in Cooper Landing, Alaska.

This hand carved Horned Puffin measures 7" H x 7" L x 4.25" W.
