    Work in progress

    Hi All, These are two works in progress I am currently busy with. The first is the CCH Crusader I carved over two years ago at the CCH high school in London, Ontario & returned to carve the 11' trunk & found it was hollow so I am doing an off-site sculpture at my studio & will be pre-mounting the Crusader on top of it & then delivering & installing it at the school. The second is the largest on site tree I have carved to date & is located at the intersection of King & Waterloo streets in London, Ontario also & is part of the Tourism London/Stihl art walk tour. here is a link to the CH Sculpture. cch1 & the Donohue Sculpture.

    Hope you enjoy!
    Thanks, Robbin

    Thanks for posting. I really enjoyed the Donohue Progress pics. I've subscribed to this thread and can't wait to see more. Great work. Must be tough carving right out in the open like that. I imagine you get some onlookers. Anyway keep us posted on further progress.

        Hi Jim, Thanks for the comments & will keep ya posted or you can just check out my site as I update almost daily so not always a lot of time, also on dial up, ya know! Not a problem carving in the open except today, pouring rain since 2 AM this morning, but I always have lots to do anyways! It is great exposure carving in public as I do live shows also & is pretty amazing some of the people you meet.
        Thanks, Robbin

              Hey there Robbin, great stuff, checked your site and spent an enjoyable half hour browsing around. I'm gonna have to take a drive to London and have a look see in person. We live in Dunnvile so it's only a couple hour drive up there. Who knows maybe we'll run into you.

                The lady looking over her shoulder is definitely my favorite, and I do admire you work very much.

                      Thanks to all for the comments & yes I like the "Lady" the best so far & there is talk also about doing a Victorian Gentleman on a tree near the "Lady"! looking forward to this one also! Cliff, turns out I just did the show at the Dunnville Fair this fall & carved a horse head & was a great time there & if you want to drop into my studio also you are welcome anytime.
                      Thanks, Robbin

                          Robbin, dang, sorry I missed you while you were here in Dunnville. We live just up the river from town and the fishin was so good that weekend we never even got into town. Just where are you located? Maybe we might take a drive up on a rainy day (being as we can afford the gas now days). I'd really love to see some of your work in person, there are no carvers around this area so it would be a treat to meet someone with the same interests.

                            Robbin, send me your postal code. My GPS doesn't show Brooksdakle and neither does mapquest.

                              Hi Cliff, The drive to Dunnville was about 1 1/2 hours & the best ways are to go North to the east side of Hamilton & get on the 403 West & then take exit 222 right after passing Woodstock & we are about 20 minutes Niorth up the Embro road, 3 side roads past Embro & you cant miss the carvings! Give me a call before hand just to make sure we are home 519-475-6764
                              Thanks, Robbin
