Brian Vorwaller: Bandon resident and wood carving artisan, Vorwaller placed 4th in his first-ever competition, the 2011 Oregon Divisional Chainsaw Sculpting Championships, the beginning of his full-time, professional woodcarving pursuits.

    Vorwaller has carved many sculptures, including a memorial piece that is displayed on the boardwalk in Bandon, OR, and specializes in: fine arts; landmarks and memorials; people; ocean life; benches, tables and signs. Art patrons are definitely taking notice of this talented local artist who was recently filmed for a documentary about the Oregon Coast.
