Lord Robert Penrose is a master craftman by profession and can carve anything that can be made out of wood. He started carving about 30 years ago. He came to work after classes when he was in the secondary school. The uniqueness of his work lies in his perfectionism and his life-long experience and education.
Lord Robert's favourite is the making of thrones and palanquies. More than that he carves furniture, bowles and different types of masks like Oblong Masks and Traditional Masks. He also do the finishing himself for what he mostly uses white clay.
His woodwork is made of Tweneboa (Cordia platythyrsa) or Osese (Funtumia sp.).
