Another Carving Class
Wednesday I joined another carving class and decided to try a new project. This is what I started with. The finish will be a small Jizo statue.
Mine is on the left, mid-way through the class. The one on the right is the finished example.
Our teacher, Hitoshi Yamazaki, is on the far right. The two women are advanced carving students.
This is the finished example and my piece at the end of the class. It still needs a lot of work, but I like how it is coming along.
It is interesting to see how a bit of wood gradually turns into a piece of beauty.
ReplyDeleteIs the wood soft to carve or do you struggle?
I think you're doing beautifully with it and I hope you'll share the end piece. Is the wood soft? (Queenie asked that, too!). Will you work on it or your first piece and take to the next class? Love this idea!
ReplyDeleteLooking good, I look forward to seeing your finished figure.
ReplyDeleteOh, this one is cute! Looks much easier than your other carving project, too.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to it being completed. Be careful not to get injured.🙋
