Wood Carvings
by Gary Cooper of Wichita, Kansas
Hand carved
wooden Rainbow Trout mounted
This handcarved
14-inch wooden mounted Rainbow Trout is carved by folk art carver
Gary Cooper. The carving and attention to detail is in the lodge
art style with a rusted metal hanging chain. The trout has metal
fins like the ones of years ago did. Sometimes it got a little
wild in those lodges and the carvers didn't want the fins to
break in case there was a scuffle a little too close to his work
of art.
