, 2" by 16" by

frame is carved from basswood. Michele

Driftwood Spirit
Robert Dowling Jr.
of Hampden, Me., is a
professional artist who
recently traded his canvases
for a carving knife. Under
the tutelage of the Easy
Bleeders carving club, Robert
is learning to transform
driftwood and other found
wood into wood spirits. He
said, “As I learn more about
the art of woodcarving and
the more carvings I create,
I am finding myself carving
more than painting.”
