Course Overview

Beginning and experienced carvers will enjoy this opportunity to focus on figures carved in the Scandinavian flat-plane style. Tool sharpening and the history of carving are presented at the start of the course and the instructor will lead you through an initial figure in step-by-step fashion. Then you can carve an additional piece with individual assistance from the instructor. The figures are then finished with paint. Natural oils or wax finishes will also be covered. For inspiration, the instructor will display the works of Scandinavian carvings from such woodworkers as Trygg, Gunnarrson, Larsen, Henning, Peason and more. Students may also choose to stay for an optional Day 3 ($75 tuition).
