Woodcarving Class

Mom signed us up for a woodcarving class in Safety Harbor at the History Museum. I was too young for the class but they let me take it as long as Mom stayed and helped me for safety reasons.  Restarted with a relief carving of a boat.

I liked using the different tools.

It was a lot of work but I kept with it.

After our first 3 hour class I had a really cool piece of artwork!

The next week I wanted to do another relief carving and picked a cobra. This was a multi week project. First I did the stop lines and then started the relief carving.

Next I got to wood burn on some details.

The instructors are a very nice elderly couple. He is the woodcarver and she is the wood burner.

I really loved the wood burning. I learned lots of techniques.
