Default newbie says hello and needs info
Hi

I am not a carver but I do own a George Updegraff piece signed in 1980 in Arnold, Ca. It shows an Owl family of 5.
I don't know the wood he used, or his tools.

I want to know more about this gentleman and his work, so any info would be most helpful.

Thanks
Steves

Welcome to the forum. I would suggest either googling, or search out this site for information concerning Updegraff. Good Luck!
