Clifton Sears,  Nova Scotia, Canada

In the early 1970's I became known for my wood carved scenes
of commercial fishermen. In time I began to work in marble and stone
and eventually ceramics. My themes also branched out to include
Wildlife, Caricatures, and Portrait Figurines.




In the Spotlight ...

"The Old Rockweeder"

Rockweed is the local name for seaweed that grows in the intertidal zone. It lays on the rocks when the tide is low.
