Custom Work

Dave Kemp offers the unusual benefit of carving to order. All of Dave's pieces are handmade originals and each is unique. Should you see something in one of the galleries that you like, he will carve it for you. If you would like something similiar but with changes, or if you have a design of your own, Dave will be delighted to carve it.

Dave also offers custom carving of gun stocks and canoe paddles.

There are a variety of materials that Dave carves with. With wood he offers Birch, Pine, Spruce, Elm and Poplar. In stone he offers soapstone, Brazilian Green, White, and Canadian alabasters. His carvings done in antler vary with supply as he must have all antler he uses licensed with the proper authorities.

Dave offers a variety of finishes including paint, varnish and in some cases, burning, as well as raw.
