W.F. (Bill) Judt has been carving for thirty years, starting with an adult night school course offered by the Winnipeg School Board in 1975. Mostly self-taught, he carved for twenty years in the relative isolation of northern Alberta. Because of this his style of carving is quite different from that of carvers elsewhere. He specializes in relief carving (carving pictures in flat panels) which he executes in panels that are 2" thick or less. Almost all of his carvings are done on a commission basis, and are purchased by private families, businesses, corporations, and the like. Biblical themes are his favorite.

Bill currently resides in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan where he maintains a lively teaching studio, writes carving books and works on commission pieces. Bill also owner/maintains the internet mailing list WWWoodcarver Mailing List, now in it's ninth year.
