Wood Carving: Forest Floor
This is a piece of Cypres that I carved a forest floor pattern along with leaves, sticks, and deer tracks. I then added in a few arrowheads scattered about. I love walking in the woods and finding treasure like this.

Michael Altom
QuotableWalkingStick
I retired from the USAF after 28 years and now I make canes, walking sticks, jewelry and art pieces full time. The Quotable Walking Stick is a concept that I started. I find rare, unusual, and/or antique items to make into walking stick handles. Then I find an appropriate quote from literature, movies, music or elsewhere that I feel compliments the user.
Quotes have always been an important part of my life. It is comforting to know that others we admire think along the same lines as we do. I hope you will find one that speaks to you.

Feb 27, 2014Michael, was absolutely wonderful to work with! We asked for an initial sample custom made cane and we are extremely pleased with the final product. We will be working with Michael to produce a large quantity as a fundraising project for our non-profit organization. -deb c.

Dec 15, 2014Mr. Altom made me a beautiful cross at such a reasonable price. Communicating with him was so easy and Mr. Altom seemed to know exactly what I was looking for. It was shipped promptly and shipping was included in the price I paid. I would definitely recommend his work and I will actually look to purchase gifts from him again.
