Naomi
Schneider started woodcarving in 1982 when she began taking private
classes in Nagasaki, Japan. She started teaching woodcarving in 1994.
Woodcarving has been a continuous part of her life both as a student
and a teacher. She has produced many styles in this art, including
Kibori.
Kibori is like an inscribed picture on wood, sometimes painted and
other times in natural wood tones. The most well known Kibori originated
in Kamakura, Japan. A tortoiseshell pattern is quite common. Themes
vary from natural subjects to man-made objects.
Naomi's woodcarvings will be displayed with some of her works for
sale.
