[Woodcarver] Chat: Whatcha' Carvin'

[Bill Judt]

Lynn:

I've been busy with commissions lately.

A large crest - 36" diameter -  went to the Board offices of the Peace  
Wapiti School board in Grande Prairie, AB.
See it at:

Also finished a carving in white birch based on Luke's account of the  
parable of the Sower.
See it at the bottom of the page:

Both these carving represented a significant challenge. The Crest was  
in the hardest piece of Red Oak I've ever carved in. BRUTAL. I did the  
stamping took me over three afternoons so that I would not wear out my  
arms. Even then, I strained my right arm and an old case of tendentious  
flared up. Yikes.

The Sower carving represented a challenge in design. But I was pleased  
how the spreading of the seek worked out. Raised and incised carving  
added to the complexity of the carving.

Comments??
