Tom
Hower September
14 – 20,
2008 (Five Teaching Days) www.carvingsbytommy.homestead.com This seminar is for the woodcarver who is tired of the traditional step-by-step; follow the pattern procedures used in most woodcarving seminars. Each carver will design and produce a truly unique work of art. For those who believe they have a “not so creative mind,” Tom will guide them down an exploratory path to success, showing the student how to get the most out of the wood. The carving medium is Cottonwood Bark. Tom will have a supply of this unique bark to choose from or the student may supply their own. Learn to “read” the wood as you create a fanciful dwelling that looks like you stepped back in time - or into the middle of a work of fiction. The course is designed to give each participant a finished piece while having a relaxing, fun filled experience. Tom brings seventeen years of carving experience to the carving table. The technical part of the course is taught through lectures, demonstrations and lots of one-on-one instruction. A participant in this class should have a minimum of one year’s carving experience and a good basic knowledge of woodcarving. The experienced carver will find the course challenging and rewarding. Studio: Something for all levels.
