West's Carving Fills Spare Minutes Into Folk Art
Floyd West, a Estes Park inspired wood carver from Monticello, turns scraps of poplar, balsa, gum and redwood into life like horses and figures. He carved 26 practice horses and pieces like a mare and colt from one block, spending hours in his shop to craft a realistic style. He says carving is a relaxing indoor hobby and plans to create a horse to rival the Estes Park memory.
