Welcome to SWAMP BEAR ART 

4 hours carving and 2 hours finishing...by Joel Palmer Swamp Bear Art - Canada

This is a short video of myself and a couple of my competitors at the 2012 Atlantic Canadian Chainsaw Competition in Fredericton, New Brunswick. This is Day 4, 'Found it at the Frex' theme, where I carved a life-sized carousel horse.

Artists were given 4 hours to do there best at completing these huge sculptures

This piece was stolen from the exhibition grounds from the artsist please contact with any information...Joel Palmer 506 260 9464

I left the rough-yet finished look on this piece to keep the feel and look of the chainsaw carving. Great little challenge that was a lot of fun to complete.

This little beauty is modeled after the classic ford trucks we all know and love. It will be painted red and other colours for added details. This was my first attempt at this sort of work and considering it was made with just a regular stock saw I think it turned out pretty neat:) Hope you like it.
