Note:

Fred Moulding was born in 1894 in Yorkshire, England. He immigrated to Canada in 1912, settling near Regina, Saskatchewan. Moulding struggled to raise a family as a farmer through the Depression, and it was not until in his sixties that he began carving wood. A self-taught carver, Moulding’s work reflected depicted rural life in Saskatchewan, carving grain wagons, ploughs, butchering equipment, and animals frequently seen in the region. He hoped to leave a legacy of his life for future generations. Moulding exhibited his work throughout Saskatchewan, including the Susan Whitney Gallery and the Dunlop Gallery in Regina, and the Mendel Art Gallery in Saskatoon. His work is part of several private collections, as well as the collections of the Canada Council Art Bank in Ottawa and the Canadian Museum of Civilization in Hull, Quebec.
