Today I visited the local carving show. This is a great opportunity for a good look at carving tools and supplies. You can pick the brain of an experienced wood carver and sign up for a class. Some carving shows offer free classes to the public and you can try your had at carving to see how you like wood carving.
Most shows have vendors that on site that are local business where you can get supplies easily through out the year. Our local show has members on site where you can meet the carvers and sign up for membership.
When you enter the building you get a slip of paper to vote on the entered carvings that range from beginner to the professional. This is a great time to see new designs and speak with carvers who share your interest.
I personally own some of my friend Betty's carved Wood Sprites and hang them for all to see. My family loves them as gifts also. Truly talented lady. Enjoy her enthusiasm!
