Carving Clinic – Virtual Workshop

Ever look at someone’s Insta-perfect carve and wonder how they do it? Let’s spend 90 minutes together on Zoom and practice a few different techniques to improve your carving skills. Bring a design or image transferred onto linoleum, rubber or vinyl, some scraps to practice on and a variety of gouges and we can work together to make your carving dreams come true! Please note: there is no design or printing in this workshop, just carving practice.
