Inspired by a love of nature and a lifetime of working with wood,
Tom Park began his woodcarving career when he retired in 1997
after 38 years as a teacher and principal. He is a member of the
board of Prairie Canada Carvers Association , a group that
promotes the art of carving and organizes one of the most
successful carving competitions in Central and Western Canada.
He is also a member of the Adanac Carving Club and Les Gens de
Bois Carving Club in Winnipeg. He frequently offers courses
in carving songbirds, waterbirds and raptors and does multi-day
workshops on habitat design and construction.

Tom's carvings feature decorative songbirds, shorebirds, raptors
decorative waterfowl and decoys. He has been participating in
carving competitions across Western Canada since 1999.

Tom lives in Winnipeg with his wife Dorynne. They have three adult
children. When not carving or teaching, Tom spends his time
relaxing at the cottage and volunteering as a spotter with Civil Air
Search and Rescue Association (CASARA).
