Estelle sent us this, and since we have featured wood sculpture from Loni Drager and sculpted animals from Eugene Brock, we thought this might be of interest.
53-year-old Sergei Bobkov, a Russian resident has patented a unique technique of creating amazing sculptures out of Siberian cedar wood-chips.
After creating about 100-150 chips, from 2-3 inch long cedar stick, he puts them in water for several days. Then, making use of his surgical precision, he carves the chips into any shape he needs. It is incredibly time consuming - just one of these incredible artworks takes around six months to complete, at a work rate of 10 to 12 hours a day... Sergei Bobkov focuses on wildlife creatures, and he studies their anatomy for months, before starting work.
