Griffon E. Ramsey (née O’Connell; born April 23, 1980) is an American chainsaw carving artist known for her pop-culture wood sculptures which have appeared at the Australian Chainsaw Carving Championships and the Butler Chainsaw Carving Invitational. Chip Chats magazine described her as a “world-famous” artist with an, “edgy and bold style” while VICE and Uproxx called her a “rock star of the art world” and noted her status as a female in a largely male dominated field.
Griffon Ramsey grew up in Oregon and was inspired by the carvings she saw as a child, including those of her grandfather. She graduated summa cum laude in 2008 from Texas State University with a BFA in Theatre and began chain-saw sculpting in 2011. Her first chainsaw was a gift from her husband, Geoff Ramsey. She was mentored by Disneyland parks wood designer R.L. Blair. Ramsey has stated that Griffon is not her birth name, having legally changed it while considering transitioning. She has since refused to acknowledge or disclose what her birth name is as she no longer feels a connection to that name and prefers Griffon.
In October 2011, her carving of the Crimson Omen logo from the Gears of War franchise attracted attention from multiple gaming sites and was called, “the most apropos Gears of War tribute ever” by Kotaku.
Ramsey worked for several years at Rooster Teeth Productions, during which time she created the video series Pajamachievements for Achievement Hunter, wrote and co-created Rooster Teeth Comics with artist Luke McKay, oversaw production design work and acted on series such as Immersion and RT Shorts and was a frequent guest on the Rooster Teeth Podcast. She announced her departure from the company in October 2011.

In October 2014, her video of sculpting an Eastern red cedar into Groot, based on the tree-like character from Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy, accumulated over 115,000 views in three days and was posted to many geek culture sites, including Gizmodo, io9 and Geekologie. In November 2014, she drew attention for carving Elsa from Disney’s Frozen after being inspired by her daughter’s love of the character. In December 2014, Ramsey was invited by Stihl to carve a special piece celebrating the company’s 40th Anniversary.
Ramsey draws inspiration from, “street artists, folk artists, wood carvers, tinkerers, and in general, the self-taught, her work comes from a compulsive need to rearrange her environment and manifest the reality she would like to see.” Of her work, Gio Sasso commented, “Nobody thinks of a chainsaw as an elegant tool for fine detailed work but in the hands of Griffon it seems to be… Griffon is a fantastic artist in her own right.” When asked about what she finds interesting about chainsaw carving she responded, “beyond just what I can do with it— is that it’s also this performance art… it feels like there’s two different things happening at the same time. It’s the creation of the artifact or the byproduct of the experience.”
In January 2015 Ramsey participated in the Australian Chainsaw Carving Championships, carving a story book from The Neverending Story, for which she won the People’s Choice Award. In February 2015, she attracted attention within the gaming community for carving Majora’s Mask, a life-sized replica of the facepiece from The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask.
