Wood carving class 18 - DIY carving course - carving and carving course rustic carving workshop We have arrived at our third wood carving class.
Today we are going to learn to go around a circle. Unlike what we did in class 1, where we carved and learned how to make an armhole by deepening the carving in the wood, we will now learn how to keep the circumference in high relief. We are going to use the notch for keeping the shape you want in the center and removing on its back. Wood carving takes techniques and practice, and you'll learn a little more in this third wood carving class. Wood carving is a very old but still very current art, although there are machines that carve, manual carving, art, beauty will never be replaced, as there are things that only have art value if they are made by the artist's hands. In our DIY wood carving and carpentry course we will practice, we will learn how to carve simple shapes, wooden table feet, boards, letters, and many other types of carvings that will come later in our carving course. Our course is on rustic woodworking, and it couldn't lack carvings, for this reason we decided to create this wood carving course within the free woodworking course. The carving and woodworking courses come together, as a good woodcarver masters the art of wood more easily, a good woodworker is not always necessarily a good woodcarver anymore, because carving is another segment of this almost unlimited art called woodworking. I'm going to give examples of carvings using demolition peroba because it's the wood I have the most here at the joinery but you can practice and you should in any type of wood, in various types of wood so you will master and discover the various differences and forms of carving in each type of wood, because the harder woods respond better to what you want with the chisel, since softer woods, contrary to what many people think, can be more difficult when working with the chisel, some are too soft. You will learn various carving tips on our DIY woodworking course
