[Woodcarver] new to mailing list and to carving

[jan oegema]

Hi,
  Just thought I would say hi to all of you. I am a very new carver from New Brunswick Canada and have been reading this mailing list for just over a week and have been getting great enjoyment out of it. I have been scouring the net for sites and have found quite a few very handy ones. Right now I have been carving mainly diamond willow sticks but I am itching to start a caricature as soon as possible. Any suggestions on what one I should tackle for my first one? Anyways as I said I just thought I would say hi so Hello.

Hi Darren Welcome to the List I am sure you'll enjoy it as much as I have for the last several years 
I sugges you start with a book called" Scandanavian Woodcarving"
 By HARLEY REFSAL 
All the carving can be done with a knive 
I use this book often for my beginners classes 

Good luck and happy carving to ya
