Hi,
Let us not forget Chris Pye.  His website and his "Slipstone" articles, which he makes free to all, is a great source of inspiration and carving knowledge.

 Hi all,
 
     Ivan would be my 1st pick not only a great artist but his knowledge, promotion of woodcarving, and an inspiration and willingness to share his talent over the years puts him above all the artist I know. Neil Cox of Canada would be my 2nd so would be Fred Zanafidil, Fred Coglow, David Johnson, Vic Hood..........There is a list of 50 more that are worthy

Who should be the next Woodcarving Illustrated Woodcarver of the Year?

Most carvers have been influenced and inspired by teachers or artists in the field. This is your chance to pay recognition to those that have had an impact on your carving career. WCI wants to hear who you think deserves this prestigious recognition..

Here are a few things to think about as you ponder your nomination: 

Who is making a significant contribution to woodcarving today? 
What modern woodcarver best meets the following criteria?
    • Craftsmanship and Artistry
    • Contributions to woodcarving publications and other media
    • Expertise as an instructor
    • Promotion of woodcarving

While it is not essential that candidates be teachers or writers, the quality of their work and their efforts to encourage and promote woodcarving are important.

Harold Enlow
Pat Goudin
Desiree Hajny
Rick Butz
Wayne Barton
Marv Kaisersatt
