Article and teaching

I am extremely pleased to have another carving article in Woodcarving Illustrated magazine. This article is a carving project (step-by-step) on how to carve my sports bears. This is my 2nd entry in the magazine and I hope to have many more.

If anyone is interested in having me come teach a class to your carving club, or for just a group of  carvers, I am available. My contact information is in the magazine. I can be reached at boiseowens@gmail.com

I will also be teaching a class for the Salem, Oregon carving group, the Capital Area Woodcarvers on August 9-10 of this year. It promises to be fun. I taught there last year, and am returning with new projects. I have some projects such as my "First Date" project, my "Leaning Hobo", my "Sports Bears" (see above), my "Coat of Many Colors" (Joseph from the Old Testament), my elf carving and my "Baby it's cold outside" (snowman wrapped in a quilt) carving. I will also bring a few of some other rojects I have coem up with. But I am working on quite a few other carvings as well. Many of them are just ideas, but I will soon begin to work on examples of  each of the ideas I have in my head. Hopefully I can get some carving classes for clubs to call me about. cross my fingers.

Thanks for listening. Stay safe and happy carving.
