Hey, y’all!
nn
I’m a chainsaw carver, originally from Kansas! I’ve spent the last two summers in Cooper Landing and exploring the Kenai Peninsula. This summer, I will be visiting for a few weeks from the end of May to the middle of June and I’m looking to carve it up while I’m there!!
nn
You might remember me from carving in front of the Loon or for the carved salmon trophies I made for Salmon Fest’s Smoked Salmon Competition, this past Summer! You might have even seen my work on Mike and Lorraine’s property, where I carved 10 stumps into pieces of art that will last for years to come (which they are welcoming folks to go check out, on their property)!
nn
While I’ll primarily be carving in front of The Loon, I am seeking commissioned special orders and stumps to carve during my upcoming time in Cooper Landing!
nn
You can check out some of my recent work by searching “Mirthful Creations” on Facebook or Instagram. Please, feel free to reach out to me to see if I can carve something special for you!
