The incised carving style typically creates line drawings etched into the surface of wood (or linoleum, gourds, soap, etc.) and can be done safely with one tool.

This workshop is for those who have never carved but want to try.  It is hands-on but can be attended over Zoom.  You will be provided with free Basswood, a loaner V-tool and several patterns to choose from.  During the class you will carve the Dogs Welcome Sign and be encouraged to plan a second project afterwards.

DATES/TIMES - Typically on one Saturday, 2 1/2 hours, date as noted

COST - free tuition, free wood, free loaner V tool

The main challenges are getting you the wood and tools.  If necessary you will have to pay for postage.
