This one-day course is suitable for beginners, as well as those who are familiar with the techniques and just want to play for a day. Whether you’ve never handled a chisel before or have some basic knowledge of wood carving, this workshop, will help you build your skills.
Martin will introduce you to a variety of wood carving techniques and help you assess working in three dimensions – either in the round, starting with a log, or bas-relief, working on a plank of wood. There will be a selection of locally sourced logs and planked lime from the local sawmill.
As time is limited, Martin suggests that you keep it as simple as possible – something like a bird or leaf seems to work well, this can be your starting point to create a unique sculpture from the woods.
