St. Croix LEAP
The
Life Environmental Arts Project founded many
years ago by noted woodworking artist
Fletcher Pense still thrives in the rain
forest north of Frederiksted, and is well
worth the drive. Island mahogany, tibet and
saman woods are harvested from fallen trees
and given new life as exquisite pieces of
furniture, clocks, serving boards,
countertops and more. This is the place to
come for a real conversation-piece souvenir.
MAHOGANY CARVING IN ST. CROIX
St. Croix's rugged interior is carpeted with
trees. Mahogany trees in particular are
being used by artists to carve unique items
that are characteristic of St. Croix. An
artist well known by the name Cheech carves
unique sculptures of people, and he's happy
to personalize the items just for you. Ask
anyone in the area and they'll give you
directions to find The Mahogany Guy!
