hello and welcome to my homepage riolama, where i present to you a gallery of my woodcarvings and pencil drawings. i am best known for my portraits, but i do enjoy to explore other topics too. besides portraits of friends and self portraits, i have carved portraits of michelangelo buonarroti marion graefin doenhoff, the delphic sybil, and recently albert einstein.

please enjoy your visit to riolama ! ...

... and, if you like to see how my carvings are made, or if you are looking for information or tutorials on woodcarving, please visit my blog which is a great collaboration with mark yundt.
