Christopher B. Wagner Sculptor

I'm doing live stories throughout the day. Starting off I have a fox headed figure drawn onto my block of wood. Next up he will be taken to my bandsaw. #onedaybuild #woodworking #sketch #bandsaw (at Roy, Washington)

I spent a few days helping some friends tear out old walls in their new house. I got a hundred year old 2x4 out of it. On Friday I am going to be doing a one day sculpture build with a 12in length of it. I'll be posting and going live through out the day and see if I can finish it in a solitary day. #onedaybuild #woodworking #woodcarving #oldwood #artiststudio #2x4 #reclaimedwood #recycle (at Roy, Washington)

Slow going on this elaborate pair. I think this week I'll trough in a few small sculptures to make myself feel more productive. #artiststudio #sundayfunday #sculpting #woodworking (at Roy, Washington)

Raining outside but inside this bear is dried. #woodworking #carving #lumber #bear (at Roy, Washington)

This bear rider is a fighter. Not the easiest of forms to carve. #artiststudio #carving #reclaimedlumber #oldwood (at Roy, Washington)

Tomorrow we will be having an Artist Talk: April 14 @ 2 pm hope to see you there. Weather should be great for it. Especially since it's inside. @guardinogallery @paulxrutz #pdxart #portlandart #artoftheday #artisttalk #saturday #thisweekend (at Guardino Gallery)

I don't recommend riding a bear or carving one. Competition is fierce in the bear riding carving world. #woodworking #bearride #bear #grizzlybear #ride #sculpting #reclaimedlumber (at Roy, Washington)

Just heard my yellow fella has a new home. Note one of the paintings by @paulxrutz depicted here features the yellow guy. @guardinogallery March 29-April 24 Artist Talk: April 14 @ 2 pm #pdxart #portlandart #albertastreet #reclaimedwood #woodcarving #sculpture #fineart #soldart #artistlife (at Guardino Gallery)
