Introduction
Master Carver Gilles Prud’homme of Sudbury, Ontario, Canada, is one of the world’s elite in the art of wildfowl wood carving. His sculptures, renowned as being among the best in the world, capture moments in time and reflect the relationship between predator and prey, the thrill of the hunt, and the powerful beauty of nature.
An eye for fine detail, a love of wildlife, and the dedication required to spend hundreds, possibly thousands, of hours creating one carving are qualities possessed by the world’s elite carvers. Carving both lifesize and miniature birds for over 25 years, Gilles is a third generation carver following in the footsteps of both his father and grandfather.
