28 1/2 in. tall
A turned-head kestrel with raised wing tips and exquisite textured feather detail perched on a piece of driftwood mounted on a base. Signed and dated under base and inside of joint where the branch joins base.
Before turning to carving full-time, Lepper had a distinguished career as a graphic artist in advertising and an art director. The master woodcarver has many accolades to his name, including the first purchase award at the 2013 Canadian National Wildfowl Carving Championship. The Ward Museum reports, "Since he began competing in 1987, he has won numerous ribbons, including many Best in Shows in Canada, and in the U.S. ... In 2003 he won a Best in Masters Decorative Life-size Wildfowl, and second in World Decorative Miniature Wildfowl. Noted primarily for his songbirds, he is also recognized for his raptors."
As found.
