Wood carving workshops

We are very sorry but we will not have any workshops in 2022. 

 

Our wood carving workshops are designed for 4 days, 9am – 5pm. 4 – 5 people in a group. If you would like to come and work another day or two before or after the workshop, please email us.

We have several projects to choose from – all relief carvings. You can also bring your own project and work on it here under Fred’s supervision. If you do not want to carve, you can come to learn some basic sculpting / clay modeling skills (human figure, human head, using oil based clay). Fred accepts only 4-5 students at time which allows him to work on different projects with each of them. Please let us know before the workshop what you would like to do. If you decide for one of Fred’s projects, let us know which one you would like to carve.

You should be able to complete majority of the carving in 4 days, slower or less experienced carvers will need more time. We will also talk about sharpening, finishing, and staining – all you need to do is ask, Fred will gladly share his experience.

You will need to bring your wood carving tools.

Please note that these workshops are not suitable for those who never carved and for very new beginners.

Fred’s studio in Windsor, ON is air-conditioned, well lighted and very clean. Fridge, microwave, coffee, water, and cookies are available …. please bring your lunch. The studio is in our house in Windsor, ON – we are located only 30 miles from Detroit’s airport and 2 miles from Windsor’s airport. Driving direction on Mapquest .
