Some of my
carvings are very large and can't be shipped by ground freight or mail. Other
arrangements must be made for delivery. There is a 5% handling fee for shipped
items as well. It takes a little time to wrap and pack some of these babies.
They don't fold well.. heh, heh.
Here's
the life story (so far)
Tom Yates has been
creating his unique brand of wood sculptures since 1993. Working out of his
studio on Maryland's Eastern Shore, he finds inspiration-on his long walks
along the shores and inlets of the Chesapeake. He 'sees' his creations in the
root structures of these old trees and brings them to life through a detailed
process of design, carving, and finishing. His work balances the natural beauty
of the wood with his design and carving skills to produce striking faces and
figures often described as 'Eastern Shore tree spirits'. His work can be custom
designed or purchased from available or in-progress works on line or at various
galleries and gift shops.

sisters Prozac made us friends.'" |
