Omer Audet. Sculptor. Woodcarver. La Malbaie, Quebec. Active 2005 – 2010.
Omer Audet made large sized carvings of people, animals and birds on his farm in La Malbaie on Quebec’s north shore. He started carving in his eighties and worked into his 90’s. His works were large, and detailed and can only be described as Impressionism at its naïve best. Collectors are particularly drawn to his carvings of swans and other yard birds as well as his people who are distinctly carved and with character.
He can be seen at work on his farm in two YouTube videos listed here:
