Pickering Woodcarving Show
I enjoyed attending the Pickering, Ontario, “Magic in Wood” carving show this past weekend. The show appeared to have about 350 carvings in competition and many more on display.
I’ve included a few pictures of the carvings, both on display and in the competition, in the Tributesinwood Flickr Photo album link to the right of this page. I also took a few videos which I’ll post shortly.
I was very pleased that Cpl. Duncan Sowerby earned a 1st Place in Intermediates Caricatures and my two bark carvings, Castle Cottonwood and Cottonwood Mill, earned a 2nd and 3rd respectively in the Bark Carving category.
The owners of the bark carvings ( Mom and Emily ) will be getting their carvings back but should not expect to get the ribbons!
Congratulations on the wins!! They are all amazing! I love the little doors and windows on the bark carvings 🙂

Thanks Erin. The bark carvings are a new style of carving for me that I enjoyed doing. My Mom and Daughter ended up with them and my dear wife is looking for her carving now. I’ll be doing some more as soon as I get some bark…
