Gravenhurst, Ontario - Chain Saw Carving days

SEPTEMBER CARVING DAYS

Muskoka Warf Gravenhurst

If you have ever driven north up Hwy 11 just south of Gravenhurst you've likely seen the wide assortment of wood figures from bears and wolves to mushrooms and human faces on the right hand side of the road the works of several artists around Ontario.

Well on Saturday you can watch as 12 artists transform hunks of wood into a variety of subjects using a chainsaw

This Muskoka Carving Event was the brainchild of a local carver John Kerr of Back Yard Stuff

John has assembled 12 talented chainsaw carvers from around Ontario for this two day event at the Muskoka Warf in Gravenhurst.

While  today's Carving is almost finished for the day you can still take in th show tomorrow Saturday September 3rd from 10am till 8:00pm

 

 

The Carving on the right is from another show

Kathy that sounds like fun.  I have always loved those carvings but have never seen them done.

Hi Kathy,

how cool, that would be a very interesting event to visit, wood carvers are great artists and creative in many ways, being able to work the grains and 3 dimensions.

We have a similar event coming up in Uxbridge during the Celebration Of The Arts where three local sculptors turn out three sculptures from tree trunks and when done are placed on permanent display somewhere in town

Ann - a chain saw is a pretty rough tool to use for some of the detail they manage to capture
