Introducing "The Ultimate Art Forms"--Emu and Ostrich Eggshell Carving!
Since I discovered my innate gift of seeing and drawing "in three dimensions" very early, it was natural that I would discover these miraculous Emu and Ostrich eggs! For me, sculpting them into life like images is no less than a creative dream come true. There are many egg shell carvers who do extremely intricate and beautiful work. By adding my artistic gift to this fine craft, egg shell carving is elevated to the status of life like fine art. Check them out and see what I mean! Remember to bookmark this site and check back often, as I will be updating the content regularly! |
The ivory colored layers of the larger Ostrich egg shells are not so clearly defined, but since they are larger and thicker, there is
even more shell to ‘sculpt’. I also make these eggs into lights. Sometimes I accentuate the artwork by carving
through the egg shell. The result is a striking three dimensional, realistic effect completely different from the emu egg shell.
In Addition, I’ve created the suncatchers so the sun light can 'do the work' as you hang my artwork in a window of your home.
As you can imagine, these unusual 'objects de art' are fast becoming very collectible. Neither words nor pictures can describe the magical beauty of these unique creations.

Notice the layers of color in the Emu egg shells. They range from a black-green outside through a vivid turquoise
middle layer to the pure white inner layer. Every single egg shell has its own unique personality, colors, texture and depth!
Each layer is very thin, so to carve in such detail requires the use of a very high speed, high tech tool and LOTS of
concentration. I need not add paints or stains to these works of art, since nature has provided their magnificent colors. I am
able to use these minute gradations of colors for very subtle shading. A light inside the eggs virtually brings the images to life and
enhances the very detailed carving that I do.
