5 days of carving – what can be better?

May 28, 2015 / Mary May / Tips & Tricks, Wood Carving Education, Wood Carving Tips, Woodcarving classes

 

DSCN3510Next week, June 1 – 5, I will be teaching “The Joy of Woodcarving” Class at the Connecticut Valley School of Woodworking. The weather is going to be a lot nicer than when I was there earlier this year 🙂

There are still a few spaces available. Time is running out to sign up!peach png

We will be starting with the fundamentals of carving – sharpening, basic carving cuts, how to work with the grain – and we will progress to a variety of relief carving projects that will get more challenging as the week goes on. For each project, I walk you through the complete step-by-step techniques of  creating a beautiful carving.

Whether you are a novice carver and have never picked up a gouge before, or are an experienced carver – please sign up! If you have experience in carving, you can create a more customized course if you wish.DSC02059
