| Description: | I am a master carver and I teach the traditional functional art of my people. I teach my people, as well as others, how to make masks, bentwood hats, traditonal clothing, skin sewing, and weapon making. I also like to teach about the cultural significance of each piece, design elements, color schemes, and how to put design elements together so they kind of have a flowing meaning or tell a story. | | hits: | 129 | | Added on: | 23-Apr-2001 | | Comments: | 0 |

| Description: | Fabulous German wood carvers masks. You order masks here for carnival or masks as art to be hung on your walls.
" Vor etwas mehr als 40 Jahren, begann Otto Pfaff, Holzbildhauermeister, mit der Herstellung von Miniaturmasken aus Kunststoff. Einige Zeit sp?ter, ?bernahm sein Sohn Willi Pfaff den Betrieb und leitet diesen noch heute. In den vielen Jahren wurde das Herstellungsverfahren weiter optimiert und ist heute auf einem sehr hohen Qualit?tsstandard. Dennoch werden alle unsere Produkte immer noch in sehr aufwendiger Handarbeit hergestellt. Jedes "M?skle" wird individuell nach Ihren Vorgaben entworfen und angefertigt. Informieren Sie sich doch einmal unverbindlich. Wir freuen uns auf Sie! " | | hits: | 131 | | Added on: | 22-Nov-2002 | | Comments: | 0 |

| Description: | Mr. Salgado has been creating masks for the last 63 years. Mr. Salgado learned this skill from several mask makers of the Magdalena neighborhood where he grew up. He was the first member of his family to practice this art. His masks are currently used for festivals and carnivals in the Uruapan region. Mr. Salgado creates over 60 different masks but unfortunately most of them have to be ordered with a delivery time ranging from 2 to 4 months depending of the mask. His specialty includes the dance of the Se?or Naranjo, and the dance of the Tataqueri, Corcovi, Negritos and Viejitos.

| Description: | "Shawn Karpes' training began in 1982 with George Hunt Jr., Jim Gilbert and Victor Newman during a Native art program sponsored by three levels of Victoria public schools. It was here that Shawn began experimenting in three-dimensional form. In this program, Shawn concentrated on basic design, painting and wood carving. Shawn's mother, Elizabeth Karpes (nee Alfred) was working at Arts of the Raven Gallery at this time and introduced Shawn to many carvers. As Shawn had been raised in Whitehorse and lived there until 1997, the world of Northwest Coast carving was a new experience to him although one to which he was connected by birth"............more

| Description: | "In the path of life, we often times are met with difficult decisions. These decisions may create varied tangents, that sometime determine, or not, the outcome of our long-sought dreams. There seems to be no real indication where all this will eventually lead, in our days as actual physical beings, although our spiritual entity is one that holds an infinite trail. The physical roles we take part in are only vessels upon which we travel and fate is a consciousness, a wind that moves us, and no one person really knows for sure in what direction it blows.

| Description: | NOVICA ARTIST
"In the year 1984, I was introduced to the carving profession by my cousin who was a carver in Aburi and also a professional teacher. He taught me how to carve for about a year and I had not much difficulty. I then started a full-time professional carving career late in 1985 with a shop of my own in Aburi . I have been carving on my own since.
"I also learned how to decorate my works with brass and beads, making them unique. I also paint them sometimes and I am inspired most at times by my works, they are unique and attractive."
