    Default "On the second day God created wood"

    Actually I'm an atheist. G'day everyone - I'm not only new to this forum but forums in general!... Me: For the past few years I've been teaching myself how to power carve wood sculptures and it's been a fantastic ride but also frustrating at times because my knowledge is limited and I don't have a mentor figure I can consult. It had never actually occurred to me to reach out and talk to people far more skilled and knowledgeable than myself, so for that reason I'm very happy to be here and look forward to bugging you with questions, to learning from you and sharing with you.

    Hi Ilumio,
    Welcome aboard.

    I can probably put you in touch with a carver/sculptor who lives in the Freo Area.
    He's only been carving for about 3 years but he's made some impressive things.

    I know he likes to meet artists and enthusiasts but I will have to ask him first, as although he is retired, he is quite busy.

    Cheers
