Are you in the area and you would like to learn how to carve? Than reach out to me and I'm more than happy to receive you and share with you what I know.
I'm offering guidance for beginners in wood carving. We choose together what project you would like to focus, what could be the best approach for your learning and exploration of wood work.
Depending on project you choose we would be working with hand carving tools such as saw, axe and carving knives, possibly with gauges and other tools.
The first encounters with carving are usually focused on areas of:
introduction to the greenwood [trees and types of wood for carving]
safety
how to choose and use tools in various stages of carving
carving grips
drying and finishing your creation so it could be fully used
Usually we would meet during the day in natural surroundings with the intention to have at least 3 hours for the creative exploration, enjoying spacious and relaxed time with possible lunch or dinner in between.
