NWCA Carving by Dmitry D. Emelyanov
Dmitry D. Emelyanov was born December 6, 1967, in Leningrad (now St.
Petersburg), Russia. Since 1992, he has been mastering the art of
religious and other miniature woodcarving, sticking to traditional
methods and avoiding the use of optical or mechanical tools. Not only
does he work just with hand tools, the tools he uses are ones he makes
for himself.
"I have no special art education," Dmitry says, "all is given to me from
God! I also make miniature sculpture from mastodon tusk, ceramic and
metal, but woodcarving is my favorite art."
Dmitry is currently employed at Yaroslav-The-Wise Novgorod State
University where he makes awards, souvenirs, etc., for the university.
His work can be viewed on the Internet at www.jamesbaird.com,
