Incredible images sent to Nub News by local photographer Geoff Ousbey show some deadwood being turned into an eye-catching sculpture in a Warwick park.

The photographs show the work of tree sculpture expert Graham Jones who was in Priory Park last Thursday (September 22) demonstrating his skills.

In just a few hours Graham turned a large log by St John's Brook into the incredibly lifelike face using a chainsaw, and a hammer and chisel.

He had tried to create a new bench for the park but sadly this had to be abandoned as the wood was too rotten.

But he did have time to also carve an eye and a bird.
