About me

The one thing I like to do most is giving presents. That’s why I chose this picture of me and my husband distributing Christmas present to our office staff and their families.

  • I love nature. I used to love going camping, but since we can not do it anymore we turned our backyard into a little wilderness.
  • My husband and I have been married for 38 years. I have two sons, and Anna, our little granddaughter.
  • I started carving by 1994 and (of course) am still learning. In January 2007 I joined the Ontario Wood Carvers Association (OWCA) and started visiting the Northern Carving Club in Richmond Hill.
  • I have written three books, none of them related to carving.
  • Until February of 2007, all of my carvings were done for relaxation and purely for enjoyment.
  • In February 2007 I accepted my first commission work!
  • Now that I am semiretired, I am planning to spend more time on carving, and will update this list if anything worth mentioning happens.
  • Started the “ribbon collection”. On March 19, 2007 the OWCA had its yearly in-house competition. I submitted 3 items to the novice level, and came home with one first and two second place finish
  • The Ontario Wood Carvers Association held its Annual Competition and Show in October 2007. I entered two carvings, both had been awarded first place in their own categories
  • As I am entering more competition, I started a new menu option “Awards”, please see it for the competition results.
  • Trying to do sculpting, please check out the work in progress section
