I carved a demon dog called a Black Shuck from tulip wood over the course of 3 months with around 90 hours work in total. I decided to go the hybrid wood carving route with this one, using a carving disc, a mini chainsaw and of course my chisels and knives.
Why did I pick the Black Shuck? Well, it's a demon dog from East Anglian folklore, the area in which I live in the UK. I'm hoping to promote and educate people about non-mainstream myths, legends and beasts because I feel like these little snippets of the past are so important to us culturally and the more attention I can bring to them, the better.
I of course also want to share my culture with the world, and explore as many other cultures around the world as possible.
This carving was made from a block of tulip wood and finished with a blow torch and diluted oil paints over a wood varnish.
