Henry T. Snow. Sculptor. Woodcarver. Grand Falls, Newfoundland. Active 1970’s -1990’s.
Henry Thomas Snow was a fine and imaginative carver. He is best known for his carved and painted birds. He was an outsider artist rather that a realistic ‘from nature’ bird carver and his mounts were often quite dramatic as in the case of the Carved Woodpecker shown here. He generally signed his work on the base: “H. T. Snow” with his postal address. Henry Snow also was a flat-plane carver and a maker of carved figures. An example with his mark/label is shown below.
