Dylan Goodson has always enjoyed being creative and making things with his hands. Born and raised in the woods of Coosa County, Alabama, Dylan utilized the ample supply of sticks and wood in his backyard to make wooden boats and other toys as a child. When he needed soldiers to go with his boats, he carved a small army of matchstick-sized soldiers. He enjoyed the creative process of carving so much, he tried his hand at other figures and small human heads. By age 14, his quest to learn more about the art of carving led him to check out every book in the public library about woodcarving. Since then he has carved a wide range of subjects, from human figures to miniature animals.

Dylan Goodson takes realistic figure carving to the next level with his masterful understanding of anatomy and attention to detail. Woodcarving Illustrated
There are a lot of things that I love about being a woodcarver, but the greatest reward is sharing my work with people and seeing the wonder and joy on their faces. Dylan Goodson
