I was working in Burns Lake, BC for part of a summer and befriended Mark who was learning to carve. After meeting him and getting to know Mark he invited me to his home to meet his family. I bought this piece from him and he inscribed on it “To a true friend - Brad” Mark and family. I will always cherish this piece. After I bought this I commissioned Mark to carve a larger one that he had been wanting to try.
You can see the larger piece here.
