I carved this Carved Snake Walking Stick a week ago. The snake was carved on twisted stick. I use acrilic paint to paint the marking, sometimes I use more brown paint, sometimes I use more black. After, the paint has dried, I apply 3 or 4 coats of polyurthane over the paint. Sometimes I...

Me and said snake go a long ways back, to the moving days of my trucking career. Years ago when we were still doing that sort of transportaion a divorcing couple came to the warehouse to split their storage lot. I came back off a run to find two items left over. I asked my boss if the folks...

Here is one of my favorite canes. This is made of a piece of Manzanita root and it was a gnarly piece full of dirt and rocks. The more I cleaned it, the more voids appeared and if it weren't such an interesting piece of wood, I would have tossed it. The white snake like head is the natural...

The Manaznita wood can have a beautiful grain and this one has a red/burgundy spray feathered on the backside of this piece. The photo doesn't really do this justice, but the wood is incredible. I love creating art and functional art is my goal. For more information please visit...

For some time now I have wanted to try and create a snake chair. Don't ask me why, its just something I wanted to try to do. Some time ago I tried my hand at carving a snake in preparation for eventually building this snake chair. The chair is made from walnut. The 56 inch high back features...

I have carved a few snakes on longer staffs of different woods, but it is bit of work, twisting and turning a long stick and doing all the details on a large snake. Plus you have to deal with different defects and qualities and hardness of the wood. I like interesting sticks with different types...

This is a root my customer, CJ, had for years. He wanted it to look more like a snake. Since the root was quite old and very, very dry I first soaked it in boiled linseed oil for a day, then let it dry again for a week. Then I had to drill and peg with dowel and wood glue to strengthen weak...
