Bob GugeAbout the instructor
Bob Guge is a world class carver who resides in Sleepy Hollow, Illinois. His career as an artist has spanned over thirty years. He is a much sought after instructor who travels across the country giving carving and painting seminars as well as holding classes at his studio----the Guge Institute Of Wildlife Art in Gilberts, Illinois.

Bob has co-authored several books on bird carving and painting. For more than a decade he has worked on a series of sculptures for the Danbury Mint in Connecticut, as well as original carvings for Big Sky Carvers in Montana. Bob has captured many prestigious awards including five ‘best in world’ titles at the Ward Foundation World Championships in Ocean City, Maryland. His sculptures are included in the permanent collection of Wildfowl Art Museum in Salisbury, Maryland, the Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum in Wausau, Wisconsin, and many private and corporate collections in the world.

What a deal-----this is the first time Bob will be traveling to New England.

We are positioned to offer this workshop at 40% less than what is charged at other venues across the country. This is a great opportunity to carve with one of the world’s best carvers.
