Roger Brabant. Sculptor. Woodcarver. Rigaud, Quebec. Active late 20th -.

From an article about the artist in the Montreal Gazette:

Roger Brabant is a cabinet maker, a barn ‘whisperer’ and woodcarver. He makes carvings of roosters, especially and other things as well. Allways in paint and usually in the form of applied reliefs. He also has a fondness for old barns, especially ones he can dismantle and reuse in other even prettier forms. (See the Montreal Gazette article at the link below.)
