Been carving for a year or so and just wanted to thank you and say you’ve been by far the most influential carver I’ve found on FB. I know some people like audio commentary but for me your videos are perfect. I just study your technique. Anyway I’ve come a long way ( I think) and watching your videos has helped me more than anything. Thanks, Kevin. You’re a very talented artist.
I've often wondered why I can't create something this brilliantly clever, artistic and humorous, and after watching this great artisan at work I've realised the ONLY reason is...I'm NOT left-handed. :face-orange-raised-eyebrow:
Awww Kevin, this reminds me of my Grandpa and Dad. #RIP. They loved their stogies 😄 Thanks for putting a smile on my face in the midst of this upside down world. You're talent is a joy to watch.
Yay! Just what I needed to help get through the quarantine. Welcome back. Hope all is well in NL with this virus thing. Stay well and thanks for posting.
Holy mackerel! That is a superb piece of artwork. Anyone can find a piece of pine and a broken knife hanging around and have a go at this. The satisfaction of creating a piece of art is beyond belief , and the glow seems to last for a good while afterwards. Thank you Kevin for your inspirational video.
