Dale Woodard’s Santa, highlighted by a natural pose and realistic details,
took home top honors in Woodcarving Illustrated’s first online People’s
Choice Award. Over 6,000 votes were cast over a two-week period.
Dale’s wife created a watercolor painting based on an antique postcard. Her
painting is the inspiration for Victorian Delivery. The Santa, which is 18"
tall, is carved from a single piece of wood with no add-ons, and painted with
watercolors.
Dale lives in Tacoma, WA, and is currently working on a large religious
sculptural project.
