The Gallery's Artists
The intention of The Bone Studio and Gallery is to provide an outlet for the retail and commissioning of quality New Zealand carvings.
I will introduce you to the following list of artists with a few brief words of description and allow you to visit their pages where you'll discover the delights each of these talented carvers creates.
I've placed a couple of examples of each artist's work on their page -- in thumbnail size. Click on those images to see the larger image then use your browser's BACK button to return to the artist's page.
| Artist | Materials and styles |
| Ian Thorne | Beefbone, whalebone and teeth, ebony, jade, stone, shell and horns. |
| Brian Shields | Bone, stone |
| Gary Wilson | Wood (Maori style) |
| Pita Tauwhare | Jade (hand tools) |
| Colin Bennett | Jade and bone |
| Bruce Collier | Wood (customwood and "found" native timber) |
| Alan & Heather Hobbs | Inlaid jewelry and bone; bronze |
| Wayne Ross | Wood ("swamp kauri," manawa [an extinct relative of kauri] and recycled timbers) |
| Clarrie Ross | Bone (Maori style) |
Remember, if you don't see what you like on the artist's pages but recognize the quality in their workmanship, I can arrange to have a work commissioned from any one of them.
