Mike Moy

Artist bio

I am from Grand Rapids, MI. I attended Kendall School of Art and Design from 1999-2004. After that, I started doing chainsaw carvings and have entered many competitions throughout Michigan. I won several competitions and placed in all of them. Currently, I am doing commission work for people that have a large tree trunks in their yards.

The first year I placed in the top 25 of artprize and have done a lot of commission work since then that was directly related to the exposure I received at artprize.

Description of work: My piece is based on The Hobbit. My sculpture will be of Gandolf and Bilbo Baggins standing along side eachother on top of a large tree base which will also be carved.
