Mattochainsaw is my cousin. After dangerous years of climbing trees as an arborist/tree trimmer, he started down a different path when his wife asked him to carve a bear for the front yard. Chainsaw art–taking a piece of wood, a section of tree, or the extended stump of a felled tree and turning it into a figure and a story. Matt attends competitions, sometimes with creation time limits as short as an hour, carves images from his imagination and does commissions with chainsaw in hand and protective ear muffs
