Default Hello from Newfoundland, Canada.

Hello folks, my name is Kerry Roberts. I am from the beautiful province of Newfoundland on Canada's East coast.

I am a scroll saw enthusiast whose specialty is scrolling portraits in wood.

You can view a lot of my work on my website at http://www.kerrysworld.com

I look forward to chatting with you.

Cheers.

Kerry.

Hi Kerry

Welcome to the forum. It's nice to have such an accomplished portrait pattern maker among us .

Psst... I sneakily altered your link to make it look the way you wanted. I don't think anyone will notice so long as we keep quiet about it .

Hi Kerry,

I actually have your site saved as one of my "favorites". I ran across your work a few months ago and am quite impressed. Occasionally, when I'm working on a design, I'll look at a couple of yours for ideas. I hope you don't mind. I'm not copying anything, just seeing how you finished a mouth or ear or something. I was wondering when you would join our scrolling family. I'm glad you did. Welcome aboard.

Hey Mike I don't mind at all my friend. You are most welcome to learn from anything I have done on the pieces I have cut.

Here is one I just finished a few days ago.

Here is the original picture:

The gentleman's dark skin was a real challenge to get his features to show.

Here is the finished product:

The Father is giving it as a gift to his daughter and he is thrilled.

Default Welcome!!

Hi Kerry & welcome!! I had the pleasure of being stationed at Argentia many years ago when the Navy base was there. I spent many weekends in St.Johns. My son was born there. Newfoundland is one of my favorite places. If you need information,you're in the right place(some of it will even be useful!)
