Christina
White has owned and operated a gallery and studio complex in Dahlonega,
Georgia since 1995 called the Funky Chicken Art Project. The gallery hosts a woodcarvers gathering once a month on the third Saturday. She
is a self-taught woodcarver, and her relief carving entries have been
recognized with first place recognition in competitions. She
teaches in her studio as well as other venues in the Southeast, and is
scheduled to teach in Cortona, Italy in October of 2010. She has recently published a step by step article for Woodcarving Illustrated Magazine on relief carving fairy doors.
“I
grew up holding the other end of boards for my father in his
woodworking shop, and the smell of wood and sawdust just got into my
veins. The practical side of carving in relief has been incorporated
into furniture, boxes, cabinets, trim, door headers, and stairwells all
around my own house, and helping other carvers enhance their
surroundings with carved pieces continues to inspire me with new
designs.”
