Making the Ordinary, Extraordinary.
Wood Carved Art.
It all starts with a block of wood.
My work sometimes subtlety edges towards hyperrealism, while aiming to bring life and character to objects that might otherwise be overlooked. This approach gives my carvings a subtle presence that allows them to blend in as if they are part of the general scenery, just until the viewer takes notice that what looks like an everyday object is actually a wooden carving.

Wood Carved Hats
Hats are personal. They tell a story about who you are and how you’re feeling. Hats can seem ordinary, until they’re not. Think that’s what I like most about carving hats, they convey a message, sometimes quietly, sometimes loudly. This trio is simply titled, “Peace, Love and Joy”.

Each year Bob donates a carving to a good cause. In the fall of 2024, Bob donated a Carved Hat to Bob Sturm (The Ticket/Hardline fame) for his Drop Your Pants charity efforts to help the homeless in the DFW area. Bob Sturm got Try Aikman to sign the hat and it was auctioned off on air.
Listen to Bob’s interview with Bob, Corby and Davey on The Hardline afternoon drive on 1310 The Ticket Sports Radio Station.

“My son recently graduated from Purdue University. As a graduation gift idea we chose to have a Purdue hat carved out of wood.We received the hat which looked amazing. My son was in shock when he saw the carving as he had no idea and was an exact copy of the hat he wore through college. He was amazed how realistic the carving is the real hat.Thank you Bob!!!!”
