In front of East Beach Caravan Park at Low Head near George Town, Tasmania (the mouth of the Tamar River town) there are these beautiful carvings of Macrocapa Pine (a wood) done by Eddie Freeman a chainsaw carver, and commissioned by the previous park owners. A link to what Eddie has to say about his chain saw art.
I've never shown these particular caravings on my blog because it's my first photos of them taken the other day.
It is amazing what artists can produce with a chain saw.
ReplyDeleteIt is and they all do a great job..we have several carvings around the State which are different.
DeleteAll these made with a chain saw? wow ... that's incredible!
ReplyDeleteYes Angie, a chain saw - hard to believe.

DeleteAwesome carving! In order to fully appreciate these works, captions under the photos could help.
ReplyDeleteThat's true Duta especially for those not familiar with the fish, a light house or a ship and so on...Thanks for the tip.
DeleteI am in awe of anyone with the skill to carve like that. I'd like to own a few, but they tend to be out of my price range.
