Been a woodcarver for 15 years and love it ..
My interest is teaching this wonderful old art to the youth of today and anyone who wants to learn ...

Woodcarving is a art as old as the beginning of time .. Jesus himself was a carpenter and woodcarver ..Today it is more of a hobbby then a profession .. but still loved by those who continue to perserve the art .. My love of style is flat plane carving .. a style originated in Europe ( mostly Sweden)by most of the figure carvers of that time.. it's distinct characteristics are using basically only a knife and leaving the cuts in the figure when finished rather then smooth it out ..
Anyone can learn to carve with the right instruction .. These videos are meant to help the beginner see how knife carving is done with a variety of projects .. And learn the fun of carving a figure out of wood and other projects ..

So put down the joy sticks and turn off the music and learn to work with your hands ..

Gosh, Thanks Gene for placing several of my videos in your "Favorites". It is a great honor to be showcased on your channel and by someone who shares so much. You are a real inspiration to the carving community and I can only hope to one day contribute as much as you have. Please keep up the great work!

I really want to do this fisherman project for my dad, I was wondering if you were going to upload the pattern to the woodcarving illustrated website. If I'm not mistaken (I might be) I thought you said you were, but I can't find it.

Beautiful work. I have wanted to learn how to do this stuff, since my grandfather died before I could learn from him. You have great videos.
