Hugh McKechnie

I love taking old pieces of wood, looking for beautiful images within, and making carvings and sculpture.

I’ve been carving from the age of 7 years. A mallet, chisel, a piece of kauri, an old Chelsea Sugar Factory beam or an old Totara post makes me happy. I look for beauty and I am motivated by love.

I welcome you to come and see waka, fanciful sea creatures and mermaids.
