Aurele Seguin. Sculptor. Wood carver. Eastern Townships, Quebec. Active late 20th century.
Aurele Seguin is a bird carver. I first found his birds in a shop in Kamouraska and they were also found in other parts of the lower Gulf shore. He was originally from Quebec’s Eastern Townships. His birds are well carved and mounted on ‘as found’ pieces of driftwood. Always well-painted; they are usually signed on the base with a stamp.
