Jerry Dollar was born on a farm in Madera, California on September 27, 1938. Mr. Dollar's words: "I will start with a question. How would you like to spend every day doing anything you wanted?

My desire is not just carving birds. I want to go beyond that and capture the bird in action. This, to me, is what makes the difference in just a bird< carving or a piece of fine art--to be able to take wood and glass eyes and paint, and put them all together in just the correct way to capture the true thing, to show expression, action, and just enough mystery to exercise the viewer's imagination. My desire is to have everyone who sees one of my bird carvings to not just see a bird, but to see a part of God's wonderful creation so perfectly portrayed that the viewer is transformed into the carving." Jerry has never had any lessons in art, carving, or painting, but when he starts carving, As Jerry says, "they just happen--no not really, you see, I have been given a gift and I truly praise God for it."
