Born
in Kenya, Liv Babra grew up spending holidays on the grand foothills of Mount
Kilimanjaro, where his grandfather owned the local sawmills. It was here the tradition of family craftsmanship that he
discovered his deep appreciation and passion for wood. In this youthful time of
learning, Liv was also exposed to the fine art of African carvings, leaving a
profound impression on his creative mind. Graduating with a Bachelor of Fine
Arts from Corcoran School of Art, in Washington D.C., he pursued his creative
career passions vigorously in painting and photography. At a pivotal point,
with an excitement to explore other creative mediums Liv returned to his
youthful passions for wood and began carving. With his original appreciation's
rediscovered, his passion for wood became stronger and he now devotes the lion
share of his energy to sculpting in wood and stone at his Studio. Liv enjoys
teaching the art of carving and presents a regular series of workshops for Lee
Valley Tools and at his Studio. Liv has large
sculptures on display in parks in Ontario and Quebec and in Corporate and
private collections
