Gordon Pembridge,
Auckland, New Zealand
A Kenyan by birth, Gordon moved to New Zealand to study
art; each home played a part in informing his love for natural
history and design. “The elephants in Tsavo, Kenya, take on
the red color of the mud they use to cover themselves,” said
Gordon, now an associate member of the Society of Animal
Artists. He turned and carved this 5¾
" by 6¾
" (14.5cm by
17cm) bowl from macrocarpa (Monterey cypress). Find more
of Gordon’s work at gordonpembridge.com.

Oleksandr Yankovyi,
Ternopil, Ukraine
Four years ago, 29-year-old Oleksandr
carved a decorative mask and hasn’t put
the chisel down since. “In my time carving,
I have accumulated around 50 chisels,
and am sure that number will grow in the
future!” he said. He made this 12" (30.5cm)-
high Viking figurine out of basswood.

Bill Hamilton,
Pickering, Ontario
Bill began as a designer of
traditional furniture, “and
then, 40 years ago, I saw a
night school class in carving
and was hooked,” he said. “I
owe a great deal to the late
Warren Van Every, who was
quite strict in his teaching—
no half measures allowed,
and if he said to go ½
" deep,
then that is what you did, and
not one millimeter less.” His
basswood
Griffin Panel
was
inspired by designs in
Historic
Ornament: A Pictorial Archive
,
by C. B. Griesbach, and
stands at 16" by 22" (40.6cm
by 55.9cm). Contact Bill at
