The Amazing World of Carving with Mary May

Come join us in learning the age old art of the carving wood in this 3-day beginning carving class with Nationally known woodcarver Mary May. In a relaxed hands on format, Mary will get you started with the very basics of relief carving - how to hold tools and make basic carving cuts, how to figure out grain direction, carving safety (don't point the tools towards your  body parts!), and how to sharpen tools to a razor sharp edge. Throughout the long weekend, Mary will walk you through the step-by-step process of both shallow and deep relief carving of floral designs and show you as many carving tips and tricks as she can jam into three days of hands on carving practice and instruction. It's going to be a lot of fun, so don't miss out! Mary is one of the premier carvers in this country and her classes are always great! Space is limited.
