I am 33 years old, and married to the most beautiful and wonderful woman I have ever met. I am a scrimshaw artist and sell my art on the web. I do mostly custom work and can scribe anything that can be drawn onto Ivory. I can do custom ivory knife handles or pistol grips. If you want to learn more about the art of scrimshaw or just want to see more of my work, go to; WWW.CAROLINACUSTOMSCRIMSHAW.COM You can also look at some of my work on my pics page here on myspace!I am a Deputy Sheriff by profession and have been a Law Enforcement Officer since 1995. I am currently a Detective Sergeant in Criminal Investigations. The art of Scrimshaw has always intrigued me. I was first introduced to it firsthand several years ago at a museum in Charleston, S.C. There were several pieces of Scrimshaw on display that were created by Sailors in the 1800’s. These pieces were simple but beautiful in their own way. I think what made them so beautiful is the fact that they were created by everyday, ordinary men who in their spare time created these works of art. As I looked at these pieces I began to ponder about these “ordinary menâ€, about their lives, about their hardships. This made me think to myself “What am I going to leave behind? How will people remember me?†These ordinary men who created these works of art left a little something of themselves in each piece and I wanted to do the same! I wanted to create something that would be around long after I am gone. In January of 2006 I began learning the art, I read everything that I could find on the subject. Finally through trial and error found my style. My work is getting better with every piece that I complete. Scrimshaw is my passion and it seems every spare minute, is consumed by it! I am always trying to improve my technique, and every piece is a challenge. Every piece of Ivory is a little different. I do commissioned works on pre ban Elephant Ivory, Mammoth Ivory and Whale Ivory. I occasionally sell my work on ebay.
