Influenced by the Northwest Coast, Shane was taught mask carving styles of the First Nations people and now applies it to his own heritage of Irish, Scottish, and Norwegian decent. His carvings are clean, polished, unique and are of gallery quality. Shane is an emerging artist who believes that there are no boundries in wood carving art; that the forms and faces are already present in the wood just waiting to be found.
