Woodcarving







There was a cube of lime wood kicking around the studio which someone appeared to have practised their drilling skills on. Paul gave it to me to try out some wood carving. I started by carving out the drilled holes, originally hoping to make a statue of some kind. However the drill holes were pretty deep so I ended up with a mountain range! It's quite hard work on the right wrist and hand using the carving tools. I then spent quite a while more over the weeks carving out the inside of this model.
