Tree Carver

Clip: Season 3 Episode 7 | 4m 4sVideo has Closed Captions

After surgery gave Ray Tallman back his sight, he started chainsaw carving.

Ray Tallman went through a dark time in his life-literally. At a relatively young age cataracts gradually took his vision, until he could only see in a dark room with a low light. He began to draw from memory, and after surgery gave him back his sight, he settled on chainsaw carving to satisfy his creative urges.
