    Default carvings

    My visit into this section the other day has revived me of some Australian memories.
    I seem to recall that the waterfront at Lake Entrance, Victoria, has a row of carvings (6 ft high) which I assumed were machine made?
    Do machine carvings count?

    In my humble opinion, the end result is what it's all about.....something of beauty/artistic signifigance revealed by removing wood from original stock. The method of removal of little importance except to the "remover" what matter if it be a knife, gouges, chisels, grinders, chainsaws, or an axe, as long as the result is pleasing to the artist and his audience?

    I think the ones at Lakes Entrance are chainsaw carvings
