In late 2018 I was contacted to create a carving from a grand white oak trunk on Trout Run in Haverford, a leafy suburb of Philadelphia. This tree and one other majestic oak on the property had been badly damaged in a micro burst, a very intense, localized storm. Instead of taking both trees down, the home owners left one trunk standing. I was asked to carve it into an ice cream cone to commemorate a past family business, Potts Ice Cream.

Would you consider proposal for carving of a large tree stump in brother’s beautiful backyard in Deepdale, near Wayne?
You are first one I have contacted.
Thank you,
Nancy
Hello Nancy, are you still interested in a tree carving? My email is roger@rogerwing.com.
My tree trunk is not as large as some of your previous and impressive carving. My thought would be of a playful squirrel eating a nut. Hight probably three to four feet high
