Bruce Edmundson began wood carving in the early 1990s while working in the forest industry, focusing on timber development and silviculture. His deep appreciation for high-quality wood naturally evolved from his experience in the forests of British Columbia. He developed a particular fascination with locally exotic and unusual woods, with burls capturing his special interest. These unique growths, found on many trees, showcase the striking and distinctive features that people admire in wood, often to an extraordinary degree.
